What happened
Registered local companies in Bermuda fell by 7.2 percent over the past year, reaching a 4.5-year low of 3,660 businesses. The Government of Bermuda also addressed concerns regarding recent updates to Closed and Restricted Job Categories affecting entry-level positions in the insurance and reinsurance sector.

Why it matters
The decline in registered businesses coincided with the introduction of Bermuda’s corporate income tax, which applies a 15 percent levy to multinational groups with global revenues exceeding €750 million. Furthermore, the Government of Bermuda stated that the international business sector must create meaningful career pathways for Bermudians.
A briefing document was released examining the governance structures of St Helena, Montserrat, and Bermuda.
