The financial centre constitutes an important pillar of the Liechtenstein national economy and is well positioned for the future.

The Government of the Principality of Liechtenstein continuously makes the necessary course adjustments to further expand the competitiveness of the financial centre. The Government's long-term Financial Centre Strategy strengthens Liechtenstein's attractiveness as an international and innovative financial centre.

With this Financial Centre Strategy, the Government creates an orientation framework for the financial centre to position itself in the face of international competition, against the backdrop of far-reaching technological and regulatory changes in the financial sector.

The focus is on unrestricted and equal access to important markets and international cooperation as well as on improving the framework provided by the State, allowing innovative enterprises to thrive. The aim is to further strengthen Liechtenstein's attractiveness as an international and innovative financial centre and the positive image of its stable and reliable financial sector at home and abroad. This basis will allow the competitiveness of the financial centre to be secured for the long term. A crucial part of implementing all aspects of Liechtenstein's Financial Centre Strategy is a consistently high level of compliance with applicable international and European standards.

Of course, the attractiveness of the financial centre depends on the high quality of services, but it also depends on the framework provided by the State, the short decision-making channels, and the competencies of the authorities. To support private innovation, the Government provides a public Innovation Framework.
