#MauritiusFinance wishes to congratulate Dr. Rama Sithanen on his appointment as Governor of the Bank of Mauritius, effective Friday, 15 November 2024. Dr. Sithanen has been a valuable Board Member of Mauritius Finance since its inception in 2020. His wealth of experience, visionary leadership, and strategic insights have been instrumental in shaping our direction for the development of the #mauritiusifc and fostering strong collaboration between industry stakeholders, regulators, and public authorities. 💡Dr Sithanen’s previous tenure as Finance Minister was transformative, laying the foundations for the positioning of Mauritius as an IFC, notably through enactments like the Mauritius Offshore Business Activities Act (1992) and the Financial Services Act (2007), and the Business Facilitation Acts. His contributions also extend beyond policymaking to developing industry synergies and strategic orientation. As Mauritius begins this new chapter under Dr. Sithanen’s leadership at the Bank of Mauritius, Mauritius Finance reaffirms its commitment to strengthening the country’s position as an #IFC of excellence and looks forward to continued collaboration with the Bank of Mauritius.

💡In light of the recent government changes, the Chairperson of #mauritiusfinance shared her insights in an interview with #Defimedia, highlighting the #financialservices sector's key expectations moving forward. Shamima Mallam-Hassam emphasised the importance of maintaining a strong public-private partnership to tackle pressing economic, social, and environmental challenges.
