Cobb, Sharon U. of Florida This proposal examines the matter of financial services within the context of one offshore financial center-the Isle of Man. Offshore markets are those for currencies, loans, bonds and other instruments which exist beyond the reach of regulation by the original national economies. The Manx economy is now dominated by the financial sector which comprises 35 percent of the island's GNP and 15 percent of its workforce. The research will attempt to explain the very rapid growth of the Isle of Man's financial sector over the last twenty years, identify what type of niche market may exist, and the role of the island's financial sector in the global financial network. Factors such as legislation, technology, networks, labor characteristics, location and political stability are thought to be important ingredients of success. The research methodology is based upon personal interviews/questionnaires with representatives of approximately 80 financial services firms on the island. The study will provide empirical evidence on the reasons for the growth and will also offer comparative insights with studies of other offshore financial centers. The results will strengthen the theory of financial services within the global context.

Cobb，Sharon U.这一建议在一个离岸金融中心--马恩岛--的范围内审查金融服务问题。离岸市场是指货币、贷款、债券和其他工具的市场，这些市场超出了原有国家经济的监管范围。 目前，马恩岛的经济主要由金融部门主导，金融部门占马恩岛国民生产总值的35%和劳动力的15%。 这项研究将试图解释马恩岛金融部门在过去20年中的快速增长，确定可能存在哪种类型的利基市场，以及马恩岛金融部门在全球金融网络中的作用。 立法、技术、网络、劳动力特点、地理位置和政治稳定等因素被认为是成功的重要因素。 研究方法是基于对岛上约80家金融服务公司代表的个人访谈/问卷调查。 该研究将为增长原因提供实证证据，并将提供与其他离岸金融中心研究的比较见解。 研究结果将加强全球范围内的金融服务理论。
