How People Live in the Cayman Islands | More Companies Than People, Zero Income Tax | 4K Documentary

How do people live in the Cayman Islands, three limestone islands with no rivers, no farmland and no income tax? Welcome to the Cayman Islands, where more than 123,000 companies are registered for about 90,000 residents. In this 4K travel documentary we explore how a swampy, mosquito-filled backwater with no bank and no running water became one of the richest places on Earth. We follow the legend of the Wreck of the Ten Sail, the laws of the 1960s that turned Grand Cayman into a global financial centre, and the famous Ugland House. We look at how a country with no direct taxes pays its bills through import duty, fees and work permits, and why it now ranks among the most expensive places to live. We also relive the night Hurricane Ivan flooded Grand Cayman in 2004, and meet the islands' two rhythms, from Seven Mile Beach to Cayman Brac and Stingray City.
