Maldives has been open for direct foreign investment for many years. Because of the political stability, the simplistic legal framework and the absence of direct taxation, investors find the Maldives environment friendly and peaceful. To complement that environment, there is the Foreign Investment Services Bureau under the Trade Ministry providing guidelines for areas of investment in the trade and business sector. There is the Tourism Ministry regulating foreign investment and interest in the tourism sector. There is also the Foreign Investment Act (1979) which is the fundamental piece of legislation that lays down the framework for the foreign investment landscape of the country.

In addition, the country's efforts to promote its peaceful climate and its investment opportunities are also creating a high altitude of foreign investor interest.
