Mauritius moves to liberalise capital markets regime
Mauritius advances plans to liberalise its capital markets regime and relax foreign exchange controls to boost investment and financial services growth.
Mauritius is advancing measures to liberalise its capital markets regime and relax certain foreign exchange controls, part of broader efforts to enhance its attractiveness as an International Financial Centre. The proposed changes aim to facilitate cross‑border capital flows, attract institutional investors, and support the development of local market infrastructure. Authorities are consulting with financial institutions and regulators to balance liberalisation with prudential oversight, particularly around anti‑money‑laundering and capital‑adequacy standards. If fully implemented, the reforms could strengthen confidence in Mauritius’s financial system and support medium‑term GDP growth by expanding financing options for corporates and infrastructure projects.
