Embracing Change – Why Guernsey's Fund Market Is Gaining In Popularity

Kees Jager, Head of Fund Administration Services at Intertrust Group in Guernsey, looks at what the future holds for funds and how Guernsey has responded to this evolving market in the past year.

2020 was a year like no other – the pandemic, the US election and Brexit were just three major events that provoked change and uncertainty. The year taught us how to adapt and transform at speed – what would have taken years previously was accomplished in a matter of months, particularly in the business sphere. Rapid change proved to be one of the themes of the year and embracing this enabled the funds industry to remain strong throughout 2020 – and in Guernsey it is stronger than ever.
