Public Administration

In an economy that is increasingly internationally linked and globally dependent, the economic policy of the small country of Liechtenstein is in a special situation. Since its own influence is limited, the general conditions for business activity must be stable and favorable.

The National Archives secure the records of the Principality of Liechtenstein, to the extent these documents are of lasting value for the research of Liechtenstein history, the safeguarding of civil rights, or as information on legislation, administration, or jurisprudence.

The Liechtenstein school and training system stands for a modern field of education, which supports and accompanies its students on their path more and more characterized by lifelong learning.

The Foundation Supervisory Authority (STIFA), a division of the Office of Justice, has supervised common-benefit foundations (also referred to as public-benefit or non-profit foundations). Private-benefit foundations may also elect to place themselves under STIFA supervision.
