Produced by Times Group on an annual basis in association with the Bermuda Business Development Agency (BDA), the Bermuda Business Review is an interactive digital eBook − with limited print copies to lower its carbon footprint − which considers just why Bermuda’s (re)insurance and other financial solutions are increasingly sought after by private, corporate and institutional clients worldwide.

Providing coverage of Bermuda's current economic transformation as it enhances its capabilities and expands the breadth of its traditional business activities, it considers all aspects of the Island's many attractions as an international business and finance centre, its role in regional and international affairs and its balancing of robust yet flexible and practical regulation in line with international standards, to deliver the timely introduction of cost-effective solutions that fulfil clients requirements for more sustainable solutions.
