Audit

Build capability, remove barriers

It is a statutory requirement for all British Virgin Islands regulated entities such as banks, public funds insurance, and trust companies to submit audited financial statements within 3 or 6 months as applicable, to the Financial Services Commission after its financial year/period.

Though an external audit may not be a statutory requirement for some companies, there is usually a need for an audit to be performed to provide reasonable assurance, to the key stakeholders, that the reported performance of the Company is free from material misstatements.

Baker Tilly is the oldest established public accounting firm in the British Virgin Islands, which can trace its origins back to 1973. On 1 October 2004, the firm became a member firm of Baker Tilly International and the name of the firm changed to Baker Tilly (BVI) Limited. Baker Tilly is one of the largest public accounting practices in the Territory and thus has a wealth of experience with mutual funds, investment management companies, trust companies, insurance captives, insurance management companies, hotels and resorts, and government institutions.
