Easy Global Banking Releases Global Offshore Banking Index 2026 Ranking 24 Jurisdictions
Chur, Switzerland, 11th May 2026 -- Easy Global Banking, the international banking consultancy operated by BMA Business Solutions GmbH (UID CHE-422.832.034), today published the Global Offshore Banking Index 2026 (GOBI 2026). The index scores 24 offshore banking jurisdictions using 15 indicators grouped into five equally weighted pillars: Economic Strength, Sovereign & Banking Stability, Regulatory & Compliance, Tax & Legal Environment, and Operational Accessibility.
Singapore received the highest composite score at 88.6 out of 100, classified as Premier Tier. Switzerland scored 87.2, also Premier Tier. Luxembourg placed third at 84.2, earning Tier 1 classification. The complete dataset, pillar-level scores, and methodology documentation are available at the Global Offshore Banking Index.
GOBI 2026 -- Top 10 Jurisdictions by Composite Score
The top 10 jurisdictions in the GOBI 2026 are Singapore (88.6, Premier), Switzerland (87.2, Premier), Luxembourg (84.2, Tier 1), Netherlands (83.0, Tier 1), Ireland (82.8, Tier 1), Jersey (82.8, Tier 1), Hong Kong (81.6, Tier 1), Liechtenstein (80.8, Tier 1), UAE / Dubai (80.4, Tier 1), and Isle of Man (79.8, Tier 1). Two jurisdictions achieved Premier classification; eight earned Tier 1. Scores below 75.0 fall into Tier 2 or Tier 3 categories, as documented in the full index.
Scoring Summary
Singapores score was driven by an Operational Accessibility rating of 90 -- the highest recorded in the GOBI 2026 -- and a Regulatory Compliance rating of 92. Non-resident account eligibility criteria and documentation requirements across Singapores licensed banks are published in Easy Global Bankings Singapore bank account research for non-residents.
Switzerland recorded the highest Sovereign & Banking Stability score in the index at 98 out of 100. The Swiss banking sector holds Assets Under Management equivalent to approximately five times the countrys GDP. Switzerlands Operational Accessibility score was 65, reflecting higher minimum deposit thresholds and documentation requirements. Procedural standards and institution-level requirements are documented in Easy Global Bankings research on opening a Swiss bank account.
The Cayman Islands received a Sovereign Stability score of 98, equal to Switzerland. The UAE earned Tier 1 classification with an Economic Strength score of 82 and a Regulatory Compliance score of 88. Panama (63.2) and Seychelles (58.4) were classified as Tier 2, with score reductions attributed to Basel AML Index ratings and Greylist deductions. Vanuatu (48.6) and Marshall Islands (45.0) placed lowest among the 24 jurisdictions assessed.
Quote
Asel Mamytova, Managing Director of BMA Business Solutions GmbH and founder of Easy Global Banking:
The GOBI was designed to surface what actually determines a successful account opening -- regulatory compliance depth, operational accessibility, and institutional stability. Those three pillars decide whether an application is approved and whether assets remain protected over a 10-year horizon. Singapore wins on accessibility; Switzerland wins on permanence. The right answer depends on the applicants profile, not on rankings alone.
Methodology
The GOBI 2026 applies min-max normalisation to a 0-100 scale across all 15 indicators. Each of the five pillars carries equal weight at 20 percent. Data sources include the IMF World Economic Outlook, IMF Financial Soundness Indicators, BIS Locational Banking Statistics, OECD Global Forum, Basel Institute on Governance, PwC Tax Summaries, IBFD Database, World Bank, World Justice Project, Heritage Foundation, and proprietary GOBI research. The structural model follows the Global Financial Centres Index and the Financial Secrecy Index.
Distribution
The Global Offshore Banking Index 2026 is published as an open-access research resource. The index will be updated annually under documented version control (current: Methodological Stability v1.2). Journalists, academics, and financial professionals may cite and reference the index with attribution to Easy Global Banking.
