The finance industry in Guernsey began over 50 years ago,
developing from humble beginnings to become the major international
offshore finance centre it is today.
GUERNSEY'S FUNDS INDUSTRY
Guernsey is one of the world's largest offshore finance
centres, with a thriving funds industry. Over 800 investment
schemes are currently domiciled in the island. At the end of Q2
2021, there were over 1,400 investment funds and sub-funds under
management and administration in Guernsey with a total net asset
value of US $533 billion.
This has developed over the last 50 years due in large part to
the benefits of long term political and legal stability, combined
with tax neutrality, which Guernsey offers. The breadth and depth
of fund expertise, supportive regulatory and legal regime, and
global market access, combined with its geographic and time zone
benefits help to make Guernsey a leading funds
domicile1.
