Adeel Javaid, Cybersecurity Consultant answered:

Given the Tax structure for corporate sector (Since 2010 Corporate Tax Rate is Fixed at 17%) and conducive growth opportunities in a business friendly but transparent regulated environment, Singapore is the best choice to establish branch for expansion. Other than all this you will be able to cultivate effective business relations there as 90% of technology companies in the Fortune 1000 have offices in Singapore. Accounting and Corporate Regulatory Authority (ACRA) is the national regulator and company registrar of business entities.

2017 Index of Economic Freedom has rated the Business Freedom Index of Singapore as 95.1, Labor Freedom Index as 90.8 and Monetary Freedom Index is as 84.3 while Trade Freedom Index is rated as 90.0, Investment Freedom Index as 85.0 and Financial Freedom or Financial Secrecy Index is rated as 80.0 while these indices are still growing.

According to the Corruption Perceptions Index, Singapore is consistently ranked as one of the least corrupt countries in the world.

According to World Bank report about doing business in Singapore "It takes an entrepreneur just over 6 working days to get a new business going in Singapore, with low start-up costs. Overall, taking into account other factors, including business licensing, taxes, credit legal rights and investor protection, Singapore has about the most business-friendly regulation in the world."
