Banks in Mauritius

The Bank of Mauritius is the Central Bank of the country. It regulates and supervises the activities of banks to make sure that the banking system functions properly. The Bank also plays a major role in creating a conducive environment to enhance economic expansion.

The Development Bank of Mauritius Limited provides long term finance to companies involved in industry, tourism, agriculture and other economic sectors. There is also a network of commercial banks which provide a range of services in the financial sector. International transactions are carried out very fast given the fact that the banks are connected to the SWIFT system.
