30 BUSINESS VIEW CARIBBEAN MARCH 2020 PREFERRED VENDORS n Boddens www.Boddens.ky In the mid 1990s, several Cayman Islands-based legal firms expanded operations to other offshore jurisdictions such as British Virgin Islands and Hong Kong. The movement continued over the next two decades, but local firm Boddens saw an opportunity in avoiding the trend, making it their mission to become the top experts on all aspects of Cayman Islands law, business and commerce. Today, Boddens has achieved that goal thanks to an unfaltering focus on “keeping it local” and on cultivating client relationships, offering personal guidance in the firm’s core practice areas—which include real estate transactions, air and sea vessel registration, corporate administration, business licensing, immigration services, investment residency and more. Despite being a one-stop shop for legal and corporate administration services, Boddens has seen an increased demand in Cayman Islands “independent means permanent residency”, which is achieved either through a qualified business investment or by purchasing developed real estate upwards of US$2.4 million. “It’s an enticing option,” says Boddens Managing Partner Dale Crowley. “As a British Overseas Territory with a stable government, a booming economy, and no restriction on foreign ownership of real estate, becoming a permanent resident of the Cayman Islands is extremely attractive and our team is poised to help navigate that process effortlessly.” Other benefits of Cayman residency include exemption from direct taxation (there are no capital gains, corporate, inheritance, personal income or property taxes in the Cayman Islands); access to first-rate healthcare and education; a high quality of life and more.
