WILLEMSTAD, Curacao, August 22, 2011 /PRNewswire/ --

Vistra (Curaçao) NV has announced that it successfully completed the acquisition of IMC Management & Trust (Curaçao) NV (IMC) , a Curaçao based provider of Trust services, in July. The addition of IMC to the Vistra Curaçao family will allow Vistra Curaçao to broaden the range of services available to clients, whilst at the same time demonstrating its on-going commitment to growing its Caribbean based portfolio of clients and services.
