With nearly four decades of experience, Guernsey is an excellent location in which to conduct investment fund business.

Today the Island plays host to an extensive array of investment businesses, including investment advisers, stockbrokers and more than fifty fund managers, custodians and administrators, who in combination offer a range of products and services for both retail and institutional investors from the general to the more specialised.

These providers are comfortable with both non-Guernsey and Guernsey open and closed-ended funds. The international marketplace for Guernsey funds is illustrated by the fact that they are now promoted or sponsored by leading institutions in 45 countries.
