Along with the industrial sector, the financial centre in Liechtenstein represents a key pillar of Liechtenstein's economy. It is one of the most important financial centres in the heart of Europe and is well known as a small, sophisticated financial centre, combining competency and many years of experience with high-quality products and services across the entire bandwidth of the financial sector (wealth management, banking, asset management, funds, insurance policies, foundations, philanthropy, trusts, etc.). Stability, professionalism, quality and proximity to the customer are among the traditional strengths and success factors of Liechtenstein's financial centre. 


Enhanced external communication and active marketing

The aim of «finance.li» is to make these characteristics and strengths of the financial centre even more visible in the context of a uniform and joint online platform and to display them to the outside world. The intention is to make a further contribution to enhancing the international profile and promoting the image of the financial centre at home and abroad. Individual and institutional investors and private clients, as well as representatives of the creative media and the worldwide public at large are to be able to gain an overview quickly and easily of the location, the protagonists and the many and varied options that the financial centre of Liechtenstein has to offer.


The financial centre is delighted by the successful launch of its Internet platform www.finance.li
