Maltese ‘Economy must rest on everything except construction’ – finance minister

Competitiveness is key to Malta`s success over other countries in the region both for purposes of residency and for operations. It is an ideal regional base for international companies with a workforce that is well-qualified, flexible and multilingual.

The quality of education is high, which leads to outstanding productivity and therefore lower unit costs. The majority of the Maltese population is fluent in Maltese, English and Italian, with the former two being both official languages.
