It also sees investment in the healthcare sector possibly turning the country into a medical tourism hub that focuses on a niche market.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Investment opportunities<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><!-- close google_inset_a div ---><\/p>\n<p>Private medical laboratories: Seychelles wishes to minimise the cost of having medical tests performed abroad. The ministry of health does not have the capacity to handle specialised and a broad range of medical tests locally. This type of investment, depending on its size, would be located in existing commercial buildings and would offer a wider range of services.<\/p>\n<p>Private medical practice: The government of Seychelles is seeking private companies with a good record of accomplishment to invest in certain segments of the healthcare sector. it is still the government&#8217;s policy to provide freedom for patients to choose between their secondary and tertiary healthcare providers. The types of investment that have the greatest potential are numerous and include health screening, physiotherapy, travel clinics and reflexology.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Investment climate<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The Seychelles investment climate has improved significantly in the past years. It has a modern tax system with low corporate tax rates. The country offers fiscal incentives to foreign investors in specific sectors of the economy and there is continuous effort to continue to improve on the investment climate. Seychelles has signed Double Taxation Avoidance (DTA) agreements with sixteen countries, which allows preferential tax terms for local businesses and businesses registered in Seychelles doing business overseas.<\/p>\n<p>For further information on these opportunities contact Sherin Renaud, the chief executive officer of the Seychelles Investment Bureau at sib@seychelles.sc<\/p>\n<p><strong>For more information:<\/strong> <a href=\"http:\/\/www.tradeinvestafrica.com\/investment_opportunities\/282590.htm\">http:\/\/www.tradeinvestafrica.com\/investment_opportunities\/282590.htm<\/a><\/p>\n<p><!-- end story layout piece here --><\/p>\n<p><!-- close google_banner_subbody div ---><\/p>\n<fieldset>\n<legend align=\"center\"><b>More News on allAfrica.com<\/b><\/legend>\n<\/fieldset>\n<p>AllAfrica &#8211; All the Time<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<\/div>\n<\/p>\n<p>Follow this link:<br \/>\n<a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/allafrica.com\/stories\/201103220998.html\" title=\"Bureau Seeks Investors for Hospital And Laboratories\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Bureau Seeks Investors for Hospital And Laboratories<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p> TradeInvest Africa (Cape\u00a0Town) 24 February 2011 The Seychelles Investment Bureau (SIB) is inviting private companies to invest in the healthcare industry. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":0,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-367067","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","6":"category-business"},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.0 -
