AAA rating without sovereign debt
The Principality of Liechtenstein was once again awarded the top rating AAA – and with a stable outlook. Above all, the strong economy and the good financial situation of the public budgets were responsible for the top rating.
High security through strong regulation
The Principality is no longer the tax haven of decades past, even if this is still anchored in the minds of many investors. The Liechtenstein Financial Market Authority ensures client protection, stability and the avoidance of abuses.
EEA advantages without EU membership
Liechtenstein can benefit from the advantages of the EU without having to bear the liability disadvantages of the ESM. Through access to the European single market, Liechtenstein’s banks and insurance companies also have full freedom to provide services in all EEA states.
Stable framework conditions
The combination of direct democracy with the constitutional hereditary monarchy leads to a solid social, legal and economic order, to a high level of security within the country, and to strongly developed civil rights and liberties.
Economic area with Switzerland
The Swiss franc has always been considered a stable currency, mainly thanks to well thought-out measures on the part of Switzerland. These framework conditions of the neighbouring country have a stabilising effect for the principality through the common currency area.
High equity ratios
With an average core capital ratio of 17 %, Liechtenstein banks hold more than twice the funds required by Basel III. The high capital adequacy ratios of Liechtenstein banks meant that even during the financial crisis, no bank had to seek support from the state.
Client assets under management grow steadily
Thanks to the optimal framework conditions and the outstanding investment expertise, client assets under management in the Principality of Liechtenstein have been constantly increasing for years.
In 2021, client assets under management amounted to CHF 424.4 billion.
