On September 23, the British Virgin Islands International Finance Centre (IFC) and the BVI Investment Funds Association will host a conference in New York under the title "A New Era in Funds Domiciliation," where Domiciliation refers to the fixed location of a fund.
By words of the Executive Director of the BVI IFC Ms. Sherri Ortiz, the conference is a great demonstration of Territory's progress in this sector, and the extent to which BVI businesses in funds have grown. She noted that this is an excellent opportunity for them to showcase their funds expertise to international practitioners who want to know more about the British Virgin Islands.
The Executive Director said that the NY conference “promises to provide a quality programme of discussions and keynote speakers. It will provide a unique platform for an exchange of views, sharing best practice and formulation of strategies to best deal with opportunities in 2010 and 2011." She added that the event, which will be attended by leading hedge fund providers in the U.S., will include presentations from leading private sector practitioners on the following topics: State of the Funds Market, A Regulatory Approach, Litigate with Confidence and Lessons learned for the Funds Industry from the Financial Crisis.
The Conference is part of the BVI IFC's work on marketing the BVI financial services industry and promotion of the jurisdiction's reputation as a reliable financial services centre. The event will be visited by the representatives from the BVI FSC, such reputable offshore law firms as Conyers Dill & Pearman, Maples and Calder, Walkers, Harney´s and Ogier.
