GLOBAL FREE ZONE AWARDS
Globally Recognised.
Invested in Cayman.
#1 Free Zone in the Americas. #6 in the World.
The fDi Intelligence Global Free Zone Awards, produced by the Financial Times’ specialist foreign direct investment division, recognise free zones that demonstrate excellence in attracting investment, supporting businesses, and creating environments where innovation can thrive.
CEC’s continued recognition reflects the Cayman Islands’ strength as a stable, transparent, and business-friendly jurisdiction and the quality of the infrastructure, support, and community available to companies operating here.
But our success is measured by more than global rankings. It is also measured by the value created in Cayman: strengthening the local business ecosystem, connecting international companies with local talent and service providers, and helping build new opportunities for the future.
For founders, investors and global businesses, this independent recognition reinforces Cayman Enterprise City’s position as a credible platform for international growth, globally recognised and firmly invested in Cayman.
