Jonathan Garcia, Partner at ISOLAS LLP, contributed an article on how The Rock's uniquely receptive and progressive attitude is supporting global digital evolution. In his article, Jonathan predicts that the coming years will see even more dynamic new crypto businesses choosing Gibraltar as a regulatory jurisdiction, thanks to the strong appetite for innovation from government and regulators creating a 'virtuous circle of growth'.
Unlike many other jurisdictions, Gibraltar is able to offer businesses valuable legal certainty. A purpose-built legislative framework offers a flexible, adaptive approach that is required in the case of novel business activities, products and business models.
