ABOUT THE ISLE OF MAN
The Isle of Man is located in the north Irish Sea, between England and Ireland. It is a self-governing crown dependency, meaning that we have Queen Elizabeth II as our head of state, we have our own parliament and laws, our own economy, and is not part of the United Kingdom or the European Union.
Our economy is growing and has a Moody’s government rating of Aa3. This rating indicates the Island’s high level of wealth and economic resilience. Moody’s comment: “The IoM’s economy is more diversified than are most entities of its size, having moved away from a reliance on offshore banking towards information and communication technology (ICT), insurance and e-gaming.” One of the key strengths of our economy is that we do not have any outstanding government debt.
As observed by Moody’s the Isle of Man Government continued development of new economic sectors is a testament to its entrepreneurial drive. The following sectors are being developed:
• Medicinal cannabis
• E-gaming
• Blockchain
• Fintech
The quality of life that the Isle of Man offers is noteworthy. We are ranked as being one of the safest places in the British Isles to live with 86% of residents saying they have a good quality of life.
