The Cayman Islands Government operates as a British Overseas Territory, with the United Kingdom responsible for its defense and foreign affairs. Its governance consists of a constitutional monarchy with a parliamentary democratic system. The legislative authority is vested in a legislative assembly headed by a speaker, while executive power is exercised by the Governor in conjunction with the Cabinet, which includes leading members from the legislative assembly. The Governor, meanwhile, is appointed by the British monarch, and the Premier is elected by members of the Legislative Assembly. The judiciary operates independently, with a court system that adheres to common law.
