Callum McNeil, Partner at Sterlington British Virgin Islands, remarks, “The snowball effect of Three Arrows Capital’s BVI court-ordered liquidation in insolvency will only continue to grow, unfortunately.

Sterlington’s expertise and insight into matters concerning crypto along with our offshore presence in the BVI set us in a unique position to help companies navigate strategies for these kinds of matters.”

He is a highly experienced litigator and regularly appears as Counsel before the Courts of the BVI in corporate shareholder disputes, contentious investment fund and trust disputes, and cross-border insolvency matters.
