Why founders like Cayman Islands exempted companies

A Cayman exempted company can be incorporated with a minimum of one director and shareholder and they do not need to be resident in the Cayman Islands.

The application process is done online, and all documents can be signed digitally using DocuSign. There is no requirement for any parties to be physically present in the Cayman Islands for the incorporation process. The company is typically incorporated within 5 to 7 days.
