“The Bahamas must now chart a new course to buttress the economy, secure the future of those who work directly in the sector or benefit indirectly from financial services,” writes McCartney in the top story of the industry section of the magazine’s January – June 2017 issue.

The top story in the investing section highlights the superb standard of living for those wealthy families and high-net-worth individuals (HNWI) looking to follow their money to these sunny shores. Places such as the Albany luxury residential resort are perfectly suited to HNWIs needs; especially now that Albany has opened a new financial centre housing some of the world’s most prestigious full-service banks and financial services providers.

This high-end offering is reflected across the financial services in The Bahamas and family offices form one of the key strands of the sector. Deeply engaged with the client’s needs and aspirations, they develop long and intimate relationships with their customers.

Holdun Family Office Ltd has an established, cross-generational history with The Bahamas and chose this jurisdiction as a place to do business, not only because of the tax legislative benefits, but also as a place to live and enjoy the best things in life. “The beauty of The Bahamas is that you can be outdoors every day. So we go swimming with our kids and get them into sports,” says chief executive officer Brendan Holt Dunn. “It’s a great environment.”

Another investor that saw an opportunity here was founder and CEO of Sterling Global Financial David Kosoy, whose group combines real estate investment, fund management and boutique banking to offer a full range of financial services.
