Mauritius has had impressive political and social stability since the nation achieved independence in 1968. Current and past democratic leaders have all demonstrated their commitment to a market economy that fosters entrepreneurship and foreign investment. With an annual growth averaging approximately 6% over the past decade, the country is currently ranked first in Africa and 13th worldwide on the World Bank Ease of Doing Business Report 2020, which is up from 20th position in 2019.

Other noteworthy advantages of doing business in Mauritius include that the island is ranked first in Africa for being the most peaceful country with a flexible, bilingual (English/French) and skilled workforce, with preferential market access to Africa, Europe and the USA.

Mauritius has been fortunate enough to experience one of the highest economic growth rates in sub-Saharan countries over the past three decades. It shifted from a predominantly sugar cane economy to a diversified and sophisticated service economy across tourism, finance, trade, property and communication sectors.

Mauritius is increasingly recognised as one of the foremost investment destinations on the African continent, presenting a sound environment both politically and economically. Mauritius has reopened its economy and is receiving recognition for its prompt and organized response to Covid-19 with the majority of residents having been vaccinated.
