AGP Executive Report

Last update: 12 minutes ago

BVI Governance & Finance: Opposition Leader Marlon Penn is demanding answers after he says the BVI suffered about US$7.5 million in investment losses, including a US$2.5 million Delta Capital Partners deal in Jamaica, as the government faces Financial Investigation Agency and Internal Audit probes. Local Accountability: Penn argues the Public Finance Management Act requires Minister of Finance approval for Consolidated Fund investments, calling Premier Natalio Wheatley’s “no knowledge” claim “incompetence” and saying “heads must roll.” Tourism & Environment: White Bay in Jost van Dyke is dealing with a thick Sargassum seaweed influx that’s fouling boat propellers and could deter visitors—raising fresh pressure on tourism-linked businesses. Business Continuity: A major fire destroyed Omar’s VG and Game Over on Virgin Gorda early Thursday, with social media videos circulating as investigators assess damage. Corporate Moves: WISeKey announced an Extraordinary General Meeting on Sept. 9 to approve its proposed redomiciliation to the British Virgin Islands. Aviation Leadership: Kurt Menal, formerly BVI Airports Authority managing director, was appointed CEO of Antigua’s VC Bird International Airport effective Aug. 1. Global Policy Watch: China’s new 20% tax on offshore trusts is triggering asset-selling and compliance rushes among China-linked families and advisers in major offshore hubs, including the BVI.
