British Virgin Islands

Nerine management has been intimately involved in financial services in the British Virgin Islands for more than 30 years. Previous and current directors of our BVI office include individuals who were instrumental in the development of the jurisdiction as a leading international finance centre.  This deep involvement remains today. Members of the board continue to serve on several influential government, regulatory and private sector committees and are consulted on and contribute to a wide range of industry matters.

Nerine Trust Company (BVI) Limited holds a Class I Trust licence from the BVI Financial Services Commission and is able to conduct trust and company management business (including the formation of BVI companies and provision of registered office and registered agent services) without limitation. It is also licensed as an Authorised Custodian of bearer shares. Through its 100% subsidiary, NAR Services Limited, Nerine is licensed to act as Authorised Representative under the Securities & Investment Business Act, ("SIBA").

The BVI office is fully staffed and resourced with a team of approximately 30 full-time staff including accountants, chartered secretaries, trust and estate practitioners and internal counsel.

This breadth and depth of talent allows us to provide a level and range of services that our clients need and is rarely found elsewhere in the BVI.

We have geared ourselves to serve the needs of two very different types of client. On one hand, we handle high volume incorporation services for our substantial intermediary client base. On the other, we provide bespoke fiduciary services for individual clients and their advisers – a competence that few, if any, of our competitors can match.

Nerine is one of the largest providers of managed trust company services in the BVI. Each of these relationships is different, with varying degrees of nexus to the territory, depending on the type of trust licence and the services provided. We are experienced in providing the necessary services and ensuring that the managed trust company complies with increased local regulations and requirements - a critical consideration for our clients.
