Country

Gibraltar is situated on a peninsula at the southern tip of Spain, strategically overlooking the straits of Gibraltar. For almost 300 years Gibraltar has remained a British Crown Dependency (much to the dismay of Spain). Gibraltar is prosperous, politically stable and self-governing jurisdiction. The areas remaining under control of the United Kingdom are external security and foreign affairs. Having formally joined the EU along with the UK, Gibraltar is formally a EU territory with a special status.

Gibraltar has a population of 30`000 and British pound sterling is the official currency. English is the official language, while the population of the territory is practically bi-lingual, Spanish being the other dominant language. Gibraltar has excellent communications and is easily accessible by air, sea and land.

Gibraltar has a long standing as a modern, European offshore financial centre, sometimes also referred to as the "offshore arm" of the City of London.
