Around 75,000 companies have their nominal, 'letter box' offices in Liechtenstein, where business tax rates are very favourable. OVERVIEW FACTS LEADERS MEDIA But this status came under the spotlight when two international reports criticised Liechtenstein for lax financial controls. The reports said that the Liechtenstein banking system enabled gangs from Russia, Italy and Colombia to launder money from their criminal activities. The UN estimates that $600 billion is laundered worldwide each year. Stung by the criticism, Liechtenstein reformed its laws. Customers opening bank accounts may now no longer remain anonymous. The country has been involved in a lengthy political wrangle over the role and power of the hereditary monarchy. After a campaign which was at times bitterly divisive the people voted in March 2003 in a constitutional referendum to give Prince Hans-Adam sweeping new political powers. The outcome was decisive with just over 64% in favour of the changes.

Economic Overview Introduction Liechtenstein is a very small Principality on the east bank of the Upper Rhine, doubly landlocked between Austria and Switzerland. It occupies a mere 160 square kilometres, making it the world's fifth-smallest sovereign state: only Vatican City, Monaco, San Marino and Nauru are smaller in area than Liechtenstein. Of the 34,000 people living in Liechtenstein, 80 per cent are Roman Catholic and 34 per cent are foreigners with permanent residence (mainly from Switzerland). The capital is Vaduz and the largest town is Schaan. Liechtenstein comprises two districts: the Lowland (Schellenberg) near the Rhine river and an Upland (Vaduz) in the Alps. It has 11 local government districts (communes) and one ski resort (Malbun). The official language is German, although its spoken form is more like a mixture of Swiss and Austrian dialects. Australia-Liechtenstein Bilateral Relations Political Overview Liechtenstein is a hereditary constitutional monarchy. The Constitution stipulates that state power proceeds from the Ruling Prince and the People. His Serene Highness Ruling Prince Hans Adam II has been Ruling Prince since 13 November 1989. The national parliament is known as the Landtag. It has 25 members elected every four years. The Landtag elects a five-member Cabinet headed by the 'Head of Government', or Prime Minister, currently Otmar Hasler. Cabinet members are called 'Government Councillors'.

About the EFTA Surveillance Authority Information and publications Press releases 2004 Press releases ... contact PR(03)36: Liechtenstein maintains residence requirement for bank directors The EFTA Surveillance Authority delivered yesterday a reasoned opinion to Liechtenstein due to the breach by that State of Article 31 of the EEA Agreement. Article 25 of the Liechtenstein Banking Act states that at least one member of the management board and of the executive management must be resident in Liechtenstein and must be provided with an adequate power of attorney, enabling them to represent the institution in relation to administrative authorities and the courts. Article 31 EEA provides for the abolition of all restrictions on establishment between the EEA States, including restrictions on the right of nationals of the EEA States to set up and manage undertakings under the same conditions as are laid down by the law of the EEA State of establishment for its own nationals. Further, all covert forms of discrimination, including residence obligations, which, in practice, achieve the same discriminatory results, are prohibited. This is one of the fundamental principles of the EEA Agreement. Article 33 EEA allows derogations from the fundamental freedom of establishment on grounds of public policy, public security or public health.

about GPF What's New Newsletter Sitemap ... *Opinion Forum Liechtenstein Takes Germany to World Court Associated Press May 31, 2001 The tiny principality of Liechtenstein announced Thursday that it was bringing a case in the World Court against powerful Germany for violation of national sovereignty. Foreign Minister Ernst Walch summoned the German ambassador, Reinhard Hilger, to Vaduz from his embassy in Bern, Switzerland, to give him the news, the government said in a statement. Liechtenstein, with a population of 32,000, has been furious with the government of its 82 million neighbors to the north since 1999, when a leaked German intelligence report alleged that the picture-postcard principality was an international money-laundering center. It was reported that German agents eavesdropped on businesses in Liechtenstein through one of its monitoring centers in Germany's southern Black Forest. The respected German weekly magazine Der Spiegel said the 30-page intelligence report alleged that Latin American drug bosses, Italian Mafia and Russian organized crime acted under the protection of a close-knit web of senior Liechtenstein government officials, judges, politicians, bank directors and financial advisers. Despite its size and lack of natural resources, Liechtenstein is one of the world's richest countries, primarily because of its thriving financial services sector. A number of international reports in recent years have named the principality as a haven for money laundering. New laws tightening controls on banking came into force Jan. 1.

LIECHTENSTEIN ADDRESS BY MR. ERNST WALCH MINISTER FOR FOREIGN AFFAIRS OF THE PRINCIPALITY OF LIECHTENSTEIN WORLD CONFERENCE AGAINST RACISM, RACIAL DISCRIMINATION, XENOPHOBIA AND RELATEDINTOLERANCE DURBAN, 1 SEPTEMBER 2001 Madame President, Excellencies, Ladies and Gentlemen, First and foremost, I wish to express my gratitude to the organizers of this Conference, the Government of South Africa and, in particular, the city and the people of Durban, who have been putting up with all of us with such generous hospitality and friendliness, efficiency and professionalism. Thank you. We have come here from all corners of the globe, because basic principles of humanity are at stake: human rights and fundamental freedoms for all without distinction of race, colour, descent, national or ethnic origin. Despite the great efforts the international community and many states have put into combating racism, we still suffer from racist practices and their effects all over the world. In order to eliminate such discrimination and its consequences in the future, we also have to recognize the failures in the past. It is our duty, here and now, to show flag and to develop action. Colonialism, slavery and slave-trade are dark chapters in the book of mankind's history and have left their traces until today. These humiliating practices gave rise to a concept of superiority and inferiority among human beings, leading to the violation of human rights. Along with this, the one-sided exploitation of land and resources contributed to poverty, social injustice and to economic underdevelopment of entire regions. We deeply regret these historical wrongs. We are committed to combat all their negative consequences in the present and in the future. And we support all common efforts undertaken by the international community in this regard.

Press release issued by the Registrar JUDGMENT IN THE CASE OF WILLE v. LIECHTENSTEIN In a judgment delivered at Strasbourg on 28 October 1999 in the case of Wille v. Liechtenstein, the European Court of Human Rights held by sixteen votes to one that there had been a violation of Article 10 (freedom of expression) and of Article 13 (right to an effective remedy) of the European Convention on Human Rights. Under Article 41 (just satisfaction) of the Convention, the Court awarded the applicant 10,000 Swiss Francs for non-pecuniary damage and 91,014.05 Swiss Francs for legal costs and expenses. 1. Principal facts The applicant, Herbert Wille, a Liechtenstein national, was born in 1944 and lives in Balzers (Liechtenstein). In 1992 a controversy arose between His Serene Highness Prince Hans-Adam II of Liechtenstein (hereafter "the Prince") and the Liechtenstein Government on political competences in connection with the plebiscite on the question of Liechtenstein's accession to the European Economic Area. At the relevant time, the applicant was a member of the Liechtenstein Government. Following an argument between the Prince and members of the Government at a meeting on 28 October 1992, the matter was settled on the basis of a common declaration by the Prince, the Diet and the Government. In May 1993 the applicant did not stand for election of the new Diet. In December 1993 he was appointed President of the Liechtenstein Administrative Court (

Until the end of World War I, it was closely tied to Austria, but the economic devastation caused by that conflict forced Liechtenstein to conclude a customs and monetary union with Switzerland. Since World War II (in which Liechtenstein remained neutral) the country's low taxes have spurred outstanding economic growth.

AHV stands strong "Financing of pensions is secure for the next 15 to 20 years to come”, said Head of Government Otmar Hasler at last week’s celebration marking the 50-year-anniversary of the Old Age and Survivors' Insurance (AHV). At the occasion of the anniversary of this great social institution, AHV Director Gerhard Biedermann was able to welcome Hereditary Prince Alois, the entire government as well as numerous representatives of parliament, the communes and the economy. Gerhard Biedermann stressed that life today couldn’t be imaged without the Old Age and Survivors’ Insurance: "The enormous economic boom of the past 50 years, during which our country developed from a predominantly agricultural structure to a modern industrial and service economy, has had a positive effect on the AHV so that the AHV today is financially strong and sound.”
