BVI: VISTA Trusts
20 February 2024
VISTA trusts are a type of British Virgin Islands (BVI) trust which were introduced into BVI law by statute in 2004. They address the problems that can arise from a rule of English trust law (the 'prudent person of business rule') when businesses and other assets which represent a higher investment risk are held in trust.
