Jurisdiction Special Focus: Antigua
and Barbuda
In
common with many of its Caribbean neighbours,
Antigua & Barbuda, the subject of this Investors
Offshore jurisdiction focus, is probably a location
more synonymous with the upmarket end of the tourist

the last two decades, helped along by some generous
business and personal tax incentives, the major
