British Virgin Islands

Lead Organization: British Virgin Islands Financial Services Commission

The British Virgin Islands Financial Services Commission initiatives include a joint "Caribbean Fintech Pledge", which the members of the Caribbean Working Group of the International Forum for Investor Education (IFIE) Americas Chapter are launching in concert as a part of their World Investor Week 2019 activities to sensitize investors to the importance of understanding digital assets and on-line investing. The goal of the online pledge is to inform the public about crypto assets and related investment risks, and to secure the commitment of readers to research and ensure they understand crypto assets before investing in them.

Strengthening lifelong financial resiliency of our residents and communities remains a critical goal for the BVI FSC. We are committed to sharing information, tips, tools and strategies that can help our residents and communities become more financially prepared and resilient to withstand impacts of unforeseen events such as natural disasters and significant life changes.

While these initiatives are being launched during World Investor Week 2019, the BVI FSC will continue these initiatives through the balance of the year.
