There is no doubt that Cayman Islands remain the favourite domicile for alternative investment funds globally. Cayman is a full service jurisdiction complying with all international standards, but it's also business-friendly, with a lot of demand to have all relevant industry services located there: 184 banks, 149 trust companies, 108 mutual fund administrators, and 739 insurance companies operate from Cayman. And, of course, over 10,000 funds are registered with CIMA, the Cayman regulator.
