ABOUT US

RISA was established by members of the insolvency and restructuring industry in the British Virgin Islands (“BVI”) in 2009 to promote and support the development of the insolvency and restructuring industry in the BVI.

It is an active association which supports the industry through various technical and social events and by its focus on legislative development in the BVI. RISA is a member of the International Association of Restructuring, Insolvency & Bankruptcy Professionals (INSOL).

BVI Framework

All insolvency appointments in the BVI require licensed insolvency practitioners with local knowledge, who also offer international expertise. The BVI Insolvency Act 2003 is modern, fit for purpose and supported by a strong Commercial Court.

Membership

The three classes of RISA membership are General, Associate and Student. To be eligible for general membership you must be resident in the BVI and be a current member of a recognised insolvency, legal or accounting body.

Associate membership is available to those who are not eligible for general membership and includes professionals who are resident overseas but are frequently engaged in BVI insolvency related matters. The BVI attracts a large number of visiting leading counsel from the UK and they are also encouraged to become members of RISA and to participate in technical events
