10 reasons to choose QFC

1-Qatar is now one of the world's fastest growing economies, with one of the world's highest per capita GDPs

2- The Qatari government has committed itself to over US$ 130 billion in investment to create a modern, sustainable and industrialized economy

3- Its future wealth is largely founded on some 200 years of natural gas at current production rates

4- The QFC Regulatory Authority has created principle-based legislation of international standard, modeled closely on that used in London and other major financial centers

5- The QFC is not an offshore centre, nor a free zone.  Companies licensed by the QFC can operate in local and other currencies

6- The law establishing the QFC allows a very broad range of business operations

7- The QFC is not a property development – the QFC law allows buildings in Doha to be designated as QFC sites, which means licensed firms do not have to be in QFC premises

8- The QFC allows 100% ownership by foreign companies, and all profits can be remitted outside Qatar

9- QFC has its own immigration and employment laws, which means that all such arrangements are handled by the QFC

10- The QFC was established by the government of Qatar and enjoys the full support of Qatar's Council of Ministers
