VI ranks #3 in London AIM listed firms!
As of 2010, more than 3,000 international companies have joined the AIM since its launch in 1995.
ROAD TOWN, Tortola, VI – Amidst all the “doom and gloom” of the Virgin Islands’ financial stability, the Territory is ranked number three as a domicile of choice for companies listed on London’s Alternative Investment Market (AIM).
AIM is the London Stock Exchange’s global market for smaller and growing companies.
According to the research from Hemscott, a market-leading provider of online investor relations and corporate communications solutions, the companies that feature in the top 100 on the AIM Exchange call Isle of Man home than any other competing territory.
The report shows that the Isle of Man’s market share has increased to 18.6 percent, up from 16.3 percent in 2011. Bermuda holds the second spot.
As of 2010, more than 3,000 international companies have joined the AIM since its launch in 1995. Early stage businesses, venture capital-backed companies and more established businesses may join AIM to help raise the capital necessary for expansion, Investopedia explains.
The FTSE Group maintains three indexes for tracking the AIM: the FTSE AIM UK 50 Index, the FTSE AIM 100 Index and the FTSE AIM All-Share Index. AIM is owned by the London Stock Exchange Group.

see thank god for the VIP government we certainly missed them they have saved the BVI time and time again! more good news
Fool, we use to be number 1. Thanks to VIP we drop to number 3!
This actually mixed news. BVI used to be the clear #1 choice for foreign listing vehicles on AIM, but now Isle of Man in particular has taken a lot of our market share. People do not see financial services in the same way that they see tourism, but we need to stay competitive in financial services in order for BVI to survive. At the moment we are just over regulating ourselves to death…
hush your backside..with NDP in who do not believe in signing any TIEA we will go to number 10! BAM
Bloggers, please remember that death and life is in the power of the tongue. Stop using your tongue to proclaim negatives over the BVI. Speak life or speak positive so we can and will live.
we knew that vip was doing a good job
