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.
