LLC Jurisdiction

This jurisdiction has two types of LLC – Single and Series.

The St. Vincent and the Grenadines Limited Liability Companies Act of 2008 allows the formation of both types.

(1) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Act or under other applicable law, in the event that a LLC establishes or provides for the establishment of one or more series, and if separate and distinct records are maintained for any such series and the assets associated with any such series are held in such separate and distinct records (directly or indirectly, including through a nominee or otherwise) and accounted for in such separate and distinct records separately from the other assets of the LLC, or any other series thereof, and if the LLC agreement so provides, and if notice on the limitation on liabilities of a series as referenced in this section is set forth in the articles of formation of the LLC, then the debts, liabilities, obligations and expenses incurred, contracted for or otherwise existing with respect to a particular series shall be enforceable against the assets of such series only, and not against the assets of the LLC generally or any other series thereof, and, unless otherwise provided in the LLC agreement, none of the debts, liabilities, obligations and expenses incurred, contracted for or otherwise existing with respect to the LLC generally or any other series thereof shall be enforceable against the assets of such series.

(2) Notice in the articles of formation of the limitation on liabilities of a series referenced in subsection (1) shall be sufficient for all purposes of subsection (1) whether or not the LLC has established any series when such notice is included in the articles of formation, and there shall be no requirement that any specific series of the LLC be referenced in such notice.
