How is Guernsey's finance industry coping with
Covid-19 disruption and the lockdown? Guernsey Finance Chief
Executive Dominic Wheatley outlines his thoughts, his praise for
the way the industry has responded, and his views on the future
ways of working.
I saw a social media posting where somebody commented that a
third of the world's human population are currently in
lockdown. That's about two billion people so in terms of the
scale as human event, this is absolutely unprecedented.
Only those who were around at the time of World War II could
possibly question whether this is the largest human event of their
lifetime. I would imagine the impact was dramatically different,
but undoubtedly the scale of this is of a historic
significance.
