Mourant, an international professional services firm, has secured its position as the top legal adviser to all funds serviced in Jersey according to the 2025 Monterey Fund Report.
In the latest findings, Mourant topped the table for number of funds serviced among all legal advisers in Jersey. Notably, the firm advised on a total of 1,198 funds, an increase of 84 funds compared to the previous year. This accounts for 32.83 per cent of the market share, reflecting its significant strength in the market and continued leadership within the funds sector.
In addition, Mourant once again achieved the highest combined market share by assets, with market share by assets soaring to US$621.5 billion in the period assessed, over US$250 billion more than the nearest in its peer group.
The report is published by Monterey Insight, an independent fund research company, and provides a comprehensive statistical analysis of all funds domiciled, serviced or distributed in Jersey.
Monterey’s 31st annual report highlights continued strong performance in the sector, with fund assets serviced in Jersey increasing by seven per cent in US dollars as of 30 June 2025. The number of sub funds also expanded by four per cent, reinforcing Jersey’s position as a leading international centre for sophisticated fund structures.
Joel Hernandez, Mourant Law LP Partner and Head of the Jersey Investment Funds team, said: “We’re delighted to have maintained our spot at the forefront of the Jersey funds industry, leading the tables for number of serviced and distributed funds and number of assets again this year. This latest report demonstrates the depth of expertise and high standards that define the Jersey funds community, and it’s pleasing to see this collective performance recognised so decisively.”
Earlier this year, Joel Hernandez was appointed as the new Chair of the Jersey Funds Association, the representative body for Jersey’s funds industry, representing his expertise and influence within the sector.
