  • Monaco Grand Prix May 28
    The Monaco Grand Prix ranks among the top sporting events in the world, and for good reason.

    The combination of Formula One cars street racing and the influx of celebrities to the playground of Europe make a heady mix for the annual event, and is viewed as part of the social calendar for the world’s top sports stars, actors, models and businessmen.

    The circuit takes in Casino Square and passes by the renowned Hotel de Paris in Monte Carlo, making it one of the most reco...
  • Monaco Prince Takes Pole Position
    More used to Grand Prix cars than dog sleighs, Monaco’s Prince Albert’s forthcoming trek to the North Pole has been greeted with surprise by many.

    But the Prince is fairly accustomed to the cold, in contrast to the Mediterranean warmth of Monaco where he became ruler last July following the passing of his father Prince Rainier, who had ruled the tax haven for over 50 years.

    Albert represented Monaco at the last five Winter Olympic Games in their Bobsleigh team. And he i...
  • Jets Buzz Holiday Island
    With visitor numbers static in recent years and facing new competiton from former Eastern Bloc countries offering cheap holidays, the recent announcement by the Maltese government that negotiations were at an advanced stage with two low cost airlines has sparked hopes that the island will see a rise in visitor numbers - much to the relief of some in the travel industry worried about the future of Malta as a holiday destination.

    Even before the new carriers to the island la...
  • Tax Haven Raises 2006 Entry Price
    While Monaco is a well known European tax haven, Andorra has remained little known outside of the financial community - despite enjoying the same tax advantages and arguably more private banking than her better known rival.

    Monaco has good all year round weather and is located next to the French Riveria, while Andorra is in the P...

  • Monaco Realtors In Last Chance Saloon
    The luxury yachting market has tripled in the last eight years, and helped along by orders from Russia’s ‘nouveau riche’, the industry has seen an increase in orders of over a quarter in the last year alone.
    But while luxury and Monaco are often associated, poor sales and a possible drop in property prices haven’t been seen in the Prinicpality’s real estate sector for over a decade.
  • Holiday Home Prices Wilt In Euro Drought
    Spain and Portugal have suffered one of their worst droughts on record this summer, with consequences from empty swimming pools for the tourist to economic disaster for farmers losing their crops and livestock.
    Roger Munns, Managing Director of Tribune Properties, predicts that property prices in the two European countries could drop as much as fifteen per cent in some areas as more owners decide to put their villas and apartments on the market.
  • Euro Tax Haven Threat
    Media reporting of a new EU savings tax directive has left many people wondering whether European tax havens could soon become obselete.
    The July directive requires banks throughout Europe, including low and no tax areas such as Gibraltar, Monaco, Malta and Andorra, to disclose bank account owner information to their home country’s tax authority.
  • Royal Visit Boost For Holiday Island
    Leaders of over 50 countries from the Commonwealth will be meeting on the Mediterranean island of Malta from November 25 to 27, and for three days the island will be enjoying the attention of hundreds of millions of TV and online news viewers and newspaper readers worldwide.

    Malta has often been overlooked by holidaymakers and second home owners in favour of other Mediterranean islands such as Mallorca, Cyprus and Menorca, and hotels and estate agents alike on the island ...
