1 The Luxembourg-Asia Pacific Desk A blend of strengths to provide dynamic solutions
2 2 The Luxembourg-Asia Pacific Desk 2016 Connecting Luxembourg and Asia Pacific Luxembourg is one of the most important gateways to Europe and has unique features to position itself credibly as a privileged platform within the continent to attract Asian investment. Bringing our combined Asia Pacific and Luxembourg expertise on-site will create a perfect match between client expectations and the provision of seamless legal services. Marc Feider, Senior Partner, Allen & Overy Luxembourg Over recent years, we have seen a shift in the economic balance of power from the Western world to the East and the rise of new global powerhouses, especially China, has been an increasingly important feature of the past two decades. As Asia s economic influence is rising both inbound and outbound, exchanges between the Western world and the East are growing rapidly. Asian-based investors themselves have become major investors in other markets around the world with a sharp increase in their outbound investments. Foreign direct investments inflows are now splitting evenly between developed and developing economies. As the rebalancing of economic power continues, we further witness investors focusing their attention on cross-border activity and developing a more global mindset. Through its creative and flexible legal, tax and regulatory framework, Luxembourg has become one of the best-positioned jurisdictions to capture the increased investment between Asia and Europe. The wide range of Luxembourg investment vehicles and company structures offers investors the solutions their businesses need for global development. Therefore, it comes as no surprise that many financial institutions, including numerous global and nine Asian banks, asset managers and international corporates, have established a presence in Luxembourg. Luxembourg is the strategic choice to take advantage of the increasing economic ties between Asia and Europe. Allen & Overy LLP 2016
3 3 Why Luxembourg? An open window to the world economy Measuring the importance of the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg by its size of 2,586 square kilometres or by its population of about half a million people would not do justice to its political and, even more so, its economic importance globally. Luxembourg is a founding member of the European Union and hosts the head offices of some of the most influential European Union institutions, such as the European Court of Justice and the European Investment Bank. Luxembourg has developed into one of the most prominent and visible financial centres worldwide over the last 50 years. Luxembourg has achieved worldwide recognition as a strategic holding jurisdiction for investors from all over the world. A contributing factor for this is an attractive tax regime within the European Union combined with a large double tax treaty network. There are currently over 72 tax treaties in force (including Hong Kong and China) and more than 20 tax treaties are in the course of negotiation or ratification. This has allowed Luxembourg to capture successfully a significant share of Asian direct investments in Europe. As the largest centre for cross-border funds and the second-largest fund domiciliation centre in the world, Luxembourg attracts fund managers from all over the world. Increasingly, Asian asset managers are setting up Luxembourg investment vehicles and Luxembourg UCITS are widely distributed across Asia. In addition, the Luxembourg Stock Exchange (the LuxSE) has an outstanding reputation among capital markets and finance professionals for its attractiveness. As of September 2015, over 800 securities originating in Asian countries (including Austalia & New Zeeland) were listed on LuxSE. It is the most prominent wealth management centre in the Eurozone and boasts a buoyant insurance and private banking sector. Luxembourg is also the ideal location to create and develop corporate or intellectual property structures thanks to, among other things, its attractive tax regime.
