Leeward Management Limited, a leading governance and fiduciary services firm has opened its doors in the British Virgin Islands.
With regulatory approval secured and veteran long term BVI resident and professional Gareth Thomas appointed as Managing Director, Leeward expands its platform to deliver company management, governance, and administration seamlessly across the Cayman and BVI markets. Thomas brings decades of jurisdictional expertise to clients who demand structure that performs under pressure.
The firm brings the same integrated governance, directorship, and administration capabilities that clients trust in Cayman to one of the Caribbean's most strategic jurisdictions. What once required weeks of coordination between multiple providers can now be executed seamlessly under one engagement. The expansion reflects rising client demand for integrated, independent-provider solutions across leading offshore jurisdictions.
"The BVI launch transforms how we serve clients operating in multiple offshore jurisdictions," said Glenn Kennedy, Founder of Leeward.
"What previously required coordination and multiple onboarding processes between service providers can now be executed seamlessly under one engagement. This expansion of Leeward's footprint isn't just about growth, it's about enhancing client services offerings and delivery. " Kennedy went on to say.
From the new BVI office, Leeward will deliver comprehensive company management services including entity formation, corporate administration, registered agent and registered office services, directorship, compliance and regulatory support services. The firm becomes one of the first in its category to offer fully integrated capabilities across both Cayman and BVI jurisdictions, with particular expertise in digital asset structuring. The BVI presence strengthens Leeward's ability to serve clients across traditional and digital finance sectors, providing the services and compliance infrastructure needed to operate.
"Having operated in the BVI for many years, I have a deep understanding of the jurisdiction's history, its intricacies as well as its potential for exciting levels of growth in such areas like digital assets. Leeward's commitment to execution excellence and client-first approach makes this BVI launch the ideal platform to deliver the sophisticated, responsive service our clients expect. We're not just adding a location-we're expanding the solutions set our clients depend on to meet their structuring needs in the BVI." Gareth Thomas, head of BVI operations.
The integrated model eliminates traditional friction points in multi-jurisdictional structuring. Previously, clients forming paired Cayman-BVI structures faced multiple contracts, separate compliance requirements, and coordination delays. Leeward now delivers both jurisdictions under a single engagement with unified systems, compliance oversight, and fee structures. For digital asset clients who routinely require BVI subsidiaries alongside Cayman foundations, this represents significant operational improvement-reducing formation timelines from weeks to days.
