Continue ReadingLuxembourg, the most GDP per capita country in the world / by investing man
If it comes to small countries
But can make a huge income per capita
Most of us think of Singapore
But indeed.
There is another country in our world with just size.
Bangkok with nonthaburi
But can make the number 1 per capita income in the world
That country is luxembourg..
A lot of people may not be familiar with this name.
The question is where is this country?
Luxembourg is located west of Europe with no exit to the sea.
And adjacent to powerful countries like Germany, France and Belgium
This country has 2,586 square kilometers with a population of only 600,000 people.
Interesting is GDP per capita of this country
Number 1 is Luxembourg. There is GDP per head. 3.5 million baht.
Number 2 AND 3 ARE MACAU and Switzerland. There are GDP per head. 2.6 million baht.
Number 8 AND 9 Are USA and Singapore. There is GDP per capita. 2.0 million baht.
Number 26 is Japan. There is GDP per head. 1.3 million baht.
Number 72 is China. There is GDP per head. 3.1 hundred thousand baht.
The number 87 is Thai. There is GDP per head. 2.3 hundred thousand baht.
So what good is Luxembourg?
If it comes to Thailand, the tourism industry would be the main source of income
But for Luxembourg, the main industry is to provide financial and banking services.
Luxembourg has a policy that protects confidentiality and provides huge benefits to foreign investments such as cheaper tax thinking.
Foreign companies can set up companies in Luxembourg and can transfer money back to their country with tax deducted at a very low rate.
That's why luxembourg is called tax haven or low tax land
Therefore, many foreign funds come into Luxembourg, such as big companies like Amazon and Microsoft.
Interesting is that this country is the center of large fund around the world.
Luxembourg currently has the world'S 2th largest fund size, only United States.
With assets under administration over 132.3 trillion baht.
All International funds in the world are over 62 % registered in Luxembourg.
136 foreign banks from 29 countries are located here.
The interesting thing is why people around the world trust Luxembourg so much. Why not afraid that money will be taken easily.
Must say the key factor is transparency and political stability.
Luxembourg is currently the world's number 9th least corruption country.
The World's number 2 economic and politically stable
It is also arranged to have credibility rates (credit rating) from 3 main institutions of the world like standard & poor's, Fitch and moody's at AAA level.
There are only 11 countries in the world..
However, at present, the awakening of each country to prevent offshore company or set up foreign companies to avoid tax is getting more.
We will have to keep track of how future luxembourg situation will be.
But what's nice to learn of this is that in every country with high progress, no matter how big or small the area is.
Transparency is always a key factor..
