The British Virgin Islands

 

The British Virgin Islands comprise some sixty emerald green volcanic islands situated between, and accessible by air from, Antigua, St Maarten and Puerto Rico. The administrative Capital, Road Town, is located in the main Island, Tortola, and is the financial and commercial centre.  The territory is politically and economically stable with a total population of some 20,000.

 

The BVI is a British Dependent Territory which is self governing.  The currency is the US Dollar and there are no exchange controls.  The legal system is based upon English Common Law with a wide range of modern legislation designed to attract and to regulate and protect corporate, banking, trust, mutual fund and insurance operations.

 

The BVI is economically stable, the twin pillars of tourism and financial services continue to be fast growing.  The BVI is the largest territory for the incorporation of companies, with over 800,000 companies registered to date, the third largest for mutual funds and captive insurance and is home to the largest charter yacht industry in the world.
