About territory

The Cayman Islands are a self-governing British Overseas Territory located in the western Caribbean Sea. They are renowned as a leading offshore financial center, attracting international businesses due to their tax-neutral policies. The islands consist of Grand Cayman, Cayman Brac, and Little Cayman, offering diverse landscapes from coral reefs to beaches. Originally uninhabited, the islands were discovered by Christopher Columbus in 1503 and later became a British colony in 1670. Today, the Cayman Islands boast a high standard of living and a multicultural population.
