In the Anglo Spanish tax and legal world, the position of Gibraltar, both for proximity and for the uniqueness of its legal and tax regime is fascinating. A very good place to get some professional information about Gibraltar is the Grant Thornton site.

From the years of the Utrecht Treaty in the 18th Century, times have changed substantially . Today Gibraltar, a territory of the United Kingdom, has developed an unique position in the European Union and in the global financial markets.
