We are able to leverage our extensive knowledge and mature infrastructure across the region to maximise our benefits to clients.

STRONG INTERNATIONAL REPUTATION

The BVI is ranked as the most important offshore financial centre by the Global Financial Centres Index and the Offshore 2020 report, enhancing investor perception and priming businesses for an early mover advantage.

LEGAL AND COMMERCIAL CERTAINTY

The BVI’s legal system is based on English common law, familiar to lawyers trained in other common law jurisdictions, such as Hong Kong or Singapore. The BVI is also home to a well-regarded commercial court backed by a robust legal framework. The court system deals with matters expeditiously, economically and proportionately, and its highest court of appeal is the London Privy Council.
