The Common

For regulatory and tax reasons, many businesses now choose to incorporate at least part of their corporate structure in offshore jurisdictions. Many of these jurisdictions have strong historical links to England, which is reflected in their legislation and in their adherence to the common law. Leading examples include the Crown Dependencies of Jersey and Guernsey and the Overseas British Territories of Bermuda, the British Virgin Islands, and the Cayman Islands.

The Caribbean

Robert F. Kennedy's observation that “progress is a nice word..but change is its motivator and change has its enemies,” could have been made for the remaining six, all physically small, British dependent territories in the Caribbean: Anguilla, Bermuda, British Virgin Islands (BVI), Cayman Islands, Montserrat, and the Turks and Caicos Islands (TCI). The persistent refusal by the majority of their respective peoples to consider independence, despite, in some of the territories, its propagation by political leaders and its blandishment — at least until recently — by the British, seems an anachronism.
