Partner Melissa Lim and associate Tom Hagger have assembled the
'Walkers Guide to Setting Up a Cayman Islands Cryptocurrency or
Blockchain Fund' to tell you everything you need to know about
setting up a Cryptocurrency or Blockchain fund in the Cayman
Islands.
Why Cayman For Your Fund?
Once the investment strategy has been determined, and there is
the necessary interest from investors, the decision needs to be
made on the most optimal way to structure the fund. Often an
offshore jurisdiction such as the Cayman Islands comes into play in
the event where any of the investors are located outside of the
U.S. and are U.S. tax exempt. In these scenarios it is very common
for an offshore jurisdiction to form part of the fund
structure.
