Freelance Writing Feedback Visitor's Book Contact Luxembourg has only 413,000 inhabitants, but due to their financial offshore status and bank secrecy, they have more than 200 banks. One third of the population are foreigners working mostly in the banks and the institutions of the European Union.
This page is not meant to be a source of immigration or travel information. Its contents are based on real experiences or knowledge, a bit of exaggeration, and added a dash of British style humour, irony and sarcasm. I hope you will have a good time reading the stories. Remember, there's no smoke without a fire. In case someone wants to accuse me of chauvinism, I would like to point out that my native country, Denmark, has been through the same treatment.

The Geography of Offshore Financial Centres
and Bank Jurisdictions
Exerpt from Financial Havens, Banking Secrecy and Money-Laundering
United Nations Office for Drug Control and Crime Prevention
In some offshore financial centres and bank secrecy jurisdictions serious efforts have been made to minimize the influx of dirty money through more careful regulation. By the same token, in spite of efforts to regulate the offshore banking world, not all jurisdictions are equally regulated. Even in those that are, there is sometimes a large gap between the legal framework and its implementation. Furthermore, when pressure to close the gap between law and implementation is effective in some of the offshore banking havens or bank secrecy jurisdictions, those that are not pressured tend to be the major beneficiaries. As Switzerland has responded to external pressure for more transparency and greater cooperation with foreign law enforcement, for example, dubious money has almost certainly migrated elsewhere. As pointed out in chapter I, these jurisdictions are highly dynamic and are motivated in part by competition for deposits and other forms of business. All this poses enormous dilemmas both for international supervision and regulation and for the offshore financial centres themselves. The balancing act at the international level is to impose safeguards against and obstacles to illegal activities without at the same time constraining or obstructing legal transactions. So long as there are difficulties in distinguishing between the licit and the illicit, there are real tradeoffs between an approach that over-regulates and one that under-regulates. The balancing act for the offshore financial centres themselves is to attract customers through the provision of banking confidentiality and other kinds of legitimate services that protect money without also acquiring a reputation for "dirty banking".

Founded in 963, Luxembourg became a grand duchy in 1815 and an independent state under the Netherlands. It lost more than half of its territory to Belgium in 1839, but gained a larger measure of autonomy. Full independence was attained in 1867. Overrun by Germany in both World Wars, it ended its neutrality in 1948 when it entered into the Benelux Customs Union and when it joined NATO the following year. In 1957, Luxembourg became one of the six founding countries of the European Economic Community (later the European Union) and in 1999 it joined the euro currency area.
Official name: Grand Duchy of Luxembourg Capital: Luxembourg Government type: constitutional monarchy Population: 454,157 (July 2003 est.) Languages: Luxembourgish (national language), German (administrative language), French (administrative language) Official Currency: euro (EUR)
note: on 1 January 1999, the European Monetary Union introduced the euro as a common currency to be used by financial institutions of member countries; on 1 January 2002, the euro became the sole currency for everyday transactions within the member countries Currency code: EUR Area: total: 2,586 sq km

Today our sovereign is Grand Duke-Henri, who reigns over an independent sovereign State, forming a constitutional monarchy. The country has a surface area of 2,587 square kilometres, of which one third is covered by forest. Nowadays, the population is more than 430,000.
Our countrymen and women, are know as the "Luxembourgeois", are trilingual: they speak Lëtzebuergesch (the national language), French and German. Most of them also have a good mastery of English.
The economic structure of my country rests upon the banking sector as well as insurance, telecommunications, the steel and engineering industry, tourism, agriculture and wine-growing. Situated at the very heart of Western Europe, my country has always been at its crossroads. Indeed, Robert Schuman, "Father of Modern Europe", was born here. Luxembourg is also home for several European institutions and has provided two Presidents to the European Commission, Gaston Thorn and Jacques Santer. There are five tourist regions, each with their distinctly different countryside. Be enraptured by the heart of the "Good Land" and the millennial Capital of my country, by the hills and treasures of the Ardennes, by the mythical rocks of the Mullerthal, by the kingdom of the vine in the Moselle Valley, and by the industrial and architectural heritage of our country in the "Land of the Red Rocks".
