History of Amicorp
 
 
 
 
 
The Amicorp Group started business on October 19th, 1992 in Curaçao, the Netherlands Antilles. The following year operations expanded to Tortola, the British Virgin Islands ('BVI') and so providing a broader variety of services through this jurisdiction. Having an initial market aim toward clients in Latin America, Amicorp underwent rapid growth throughout its initial years of operation.

In 1995, Amicorp acquired its first multinational clients following significant marketing efforts in both Europe and Latin America. This contributed to the continual rapid growth of Amicorp. In this same year, Amicorp contributed to drafting new offshore legislation for the jurisdiction of Belize, confirming recognition of Amicorp as sophisticated financial service provider.

Another milestone for Amicorp was achieved in the year of 1997, when its new office building was acquired in Curaçao. As a licensed Netherlands Antilles management company, new synergies provided Amicorp a continued platform to absorb the robust expansion of clients and services. The following year, operations in the BVI were expanded with a full office staff and the office in Curaçao received ISO 9002 certification. This was the very first certification of its kind awarded to a financial service company in the Netherlands Antilles. In 1999, Amicorp´s BVI office received a similar certification, also being the first financial services company of its kind to be awarded this external recognition in the BVI.

In 1999, Amicorp established itself as the first foreign service provider of company and trust management services in Denmark. This was due to Amicorp reaction to the change in tax laws in Denmark. This timely decision provided Amicorp a lead in the market for Danish holding companies. Also in 1999, Amicorp expanded its operations opening offices in Sao Paulo, Brazil and London, The United Kingdom. Both offices were opened in relation to its expanding clientele in Brazil.

Reinforcing its market position in Europe, offices in Luxembourg and Switzerland were added in 2001 to Amicorp´s list of world-wide offices. To further expand operations, a successful takeover was established in Denmark of a smaller service provider that added to Amicorp's market presence in Denmark. In that same year, operations began in Spain under the name Amicorp de España S.L.

In 2002, Amicorp focused on expanding its global financial services through the development of both new financial products and new markets. Amicorp laid foundations for continued global growth with the opening of several additional offices located on different continents. Realization began with the start of operations in both Sweden and Singapore in 2003. Being present in various geographical locations across the globe, Amicorp's head office was relocated from Curaçao to Barcelona, Spain, to best globally optimize the coordination of all offices working in different time zones.

In 2004 Amicorp optimized the efficiency throughout the now global organization through additional new internal networking systems. Amicorp added to its presence Asia in 2005, following the founding of offices throughout Western, Central and Eastern Europe, North America, South America and Central America. Amicorp demonstrated its core strength of developing business in emerging markets through the development of the offices in developing regions of the global economy. 2005 was also the year when Amicorp relocated its administrative operations to a new office in Bangalore, India. This office became the fastest growing office in the history of the Company.

Recent office openings in China, Chile and New Zealand fell in step with the continuing high rate of growth of Amicorp's turnover and global clientele. In 2006, the Amicorp's offices totalled twenty-two globally. The charts present insights into the development of Amicorp over just the last eight years.
