This said, having the right banking services to support your business both from an investment, but also from an operational perspective is key to the success of your business. Gaming regulators across the world make it mandatory to have a functional bank account prior to issuing a gaming licence, making this one of the most important pre-licensing requirements.
Opening a bank account or obtaining other basic banking services is a laborious process, which requires the submission of due diligence documents, source of wealth and funds declarations and other documentation required during the Bank’s onboarding stage.

A cost and tax efficient jurisdiction
Over a number of years, Malta has established itself as an excellent stepping-stone for doing business with Europe and the rest of the world, with a Government which welcomes foreign investors.
Taxes in Malta are very advantageous, with specific fiscal incentives aimed at making the jurisdiction attractive for foreign direct investment (FDI). Employment tax credits, R&D tax credits, soft loan financing and bank guarantees are amongst the most beneficial Government incentives offered in Malta, with the possibility to lower corporate tax to an effective tax rate of just 5%, considered to be a key differentiator.
Malta’s strategic geographic location situated exactly at the centre of the Mediterranean, with just a couple of hours’ flights from major European cities, coupled with a highly skilled and international workforce, make Malta the ideal place to run your business.
