BVI Finance pushes crypto, digital assets in Singapore

The BVI continues to position itself as a key player in the fast-evolving world of crypto and digital finance, even as international pressures threaten to erode the territory’s competitive edge as an offshore financial centre.

BVI Finance recently showcased the territory’s digital finance offerings at TOKEN2049 Singapore, one of Asia’s premier Web3 and blockchain gatherings, held earlier this month. The participation formed part of the BVI’s ongoing campaign to promote the jurisdiction as a trusted hub for digital innovation, fintech regulation, and global financial services.

Through panel discussions and networking with some of the world’s most influential fintech voices, the BVI delegation reinforced the message that the territory remains open for business, offering a blend of strong regulation, business-friendly structures, and expertise in cross-border digital asset solutions.

BVI Finance said its participation in TOKEN2049 highlighted the territory’s capacity to meet the needs of fintech companies seeking clarity, stability, and access to international markets. These efforts align with the findings of the group’s global report, Destination Digital, which found that 94 percent of fintech leaders view cross-border expansion as key to their growth, with many looking to international finance centres like the BVI for their balanced regulatory approach.

The report also noted that fintech firms are increasingly drawn to jurisdictions offering credible legal systems and frameworks such as the BVI’s Virtual Assets Service Providers Act, which enable innovation while ensuring responsible oversight.

BVI Finance said events like TOKEN2049 strengthen the territory’s standing as a forward-thinking, stable jurisdiction committed to maintaining world-class regulatory standards while embracing digital transformation.

The participation in Singapore adds to a series of global outreach efforts this year as the BVI seeks to modernise its financial services offerings and protect its reputation amid ongoing international reforms targeting tax transparency and beneficial ownership.
