Summary

Returning to Mauritius as a premier financial hub with a robust legal and regulatory framework, the seventh summit crafted strategies to overcome sector challenges: legal and political risk, the long-term stability of assets, overreliance on domestic government treasuries, persistent currency depreciation, and extending coverage to the informal sector. The InterContinental offers the largest conference space on the island at 35,000 sq ft.
