The BVI were one of the first countries in the region to establish a Government department directly responsible for the management of the environment. In addition, the National Parks Trust was established to manage the system of land and marine national parks. Even with the heavy flow of incomes from financial services today, the environment makes tourism the most dynamic sector in the economy. The BVI environment is fragile, very productive and contributes substantially to the present standard of living.
