Vistra, the trust and fund administrator, has opened
its doors in Mauritius to target growing wealth in the Indian and African
markets.

Vistra (Mauritius) Limited was opened on
2 April, following the granting of a licence to operate as a Mauritius
management company by the local regulatory authority.

“Mauritius offers an excellent gateway
for clients seeking investment structuring solutions for African markets, given
the continent’s vast natural resource wealth and rapidly growing economies. Having
a Mauritius base will offer significant opportunities to target inbound and
outbound investments in the Indian economy, one of the fastest growing and most
vibrant in the world,” said Vistra.

Demand for corporate structuring
solutions is expected to come from a range of countries, as interest in the
African and Indian markets is global. In particular, Vistra is expecting
to win business from clients in the USA, Europe, South Africa, Southeast
Asia, India, Africa, Middle East and Australia.
