Why Global Businesses Are Choosing Cayman: CEC's 2024 Report Highlights Key Advantages

Cayman Enterprise City (CEC) has officially released the 2024 Socio-Economic Impact Assessment, independently prepared by leading Caribbean economist Marla Dukharan. The report presents a compelling case for global businesses considering a physical presence in the Cayman Islands. With a focus on substance, long-term certainty, and a supportive innovation ecosystem, CEC is reaffirmed as a strategic choice for forward-thinking companies.

1. Guaranteed Tax Concessions Through 2061

CEC offers long-term stability with tax neutrality guaranteed by law until 2061. This level of legal certainty is rarely seen in other jurisdictions and provides a significant competitive advantage for international companies planning for long-term growth.

2. Real Substance, Real Presence

Companies operating from CEC’s Special Economic Zones benefit from a platform designed to meet global standards of economic substance. CEC enables businesses to establish a genuine physical presence, helping to satisfy the expectations of shareholders and international regulators alike.

3. Access to a Skilled, Future-Ready Workforce

In 2024, 758 people were employed within CEC zones, with 77% of Caymanian-held jobs located in high-growth sectors such as tech and science. CEC is creating a pipeline of highly skilled talent ready to support global expansion, backed by over 4,200 professional development opportunities delivered last year through Enterprise Cayman.

4. Premium Office Infrastructure & Rapid Setup

CEC offers access to state-of-the-art infrastructure and a streamlined setup process that allows global companies to get operational in as little as 4-6 weeks. Whether you're establishing headquarters, satellite offices, or innovation hubs, CEC makes scaling into the region seamless and efficient.

5. A Globally Recognised Innovation Ecosystem

With over 400 international companies already part of the CEC community, Cayman has become a recognised hub for digital innovation and entrepreneurship. The report reinforces CEC’s alignment with global business needs, providing a strategic base within a stable British Overseas Territory.

As international companies continue to assess jurisdictions for expansion and compliance, CEC offers the legal clarity, infrastructure, and talent to support serious global ambitions.
