We are so pleased to launch our Destination Digital report at Fintech on the Seas. Revealing the strategic priorities, challenges, and jurisdictional considerations facing global fintechs, it places a spotlight on this new generation of business as they look beyond borders to scale, navigate complex and volatile geopolitical and economic conditions, and crucially, evolving regulatory frameworks.
The findings are clear. IFCs such as the BVI have a pivotal role to play as these businesses seek to incorporate in jurisdictions with expertise, infrastructure and regulatory clarity. They are critical to the industry’s transformation and growth. We do hope you enjoy the read.
