The British Virgin Islands, known affectionately as the ‘BVI’, is the world’s pre-eminent offshore jurisdiction for company incorporations.

British Virgin Islands companies are employed in geographically diverse corporate structures, with the effect that challenging global economic conditions have continued to dampen the mergers and acquisitions environment involving BVI companies.
