Guernsey's core funds messages have been given a global
boost with the publication of a new report on Guernsey Fund Services, produced
with Global Fund Media. The report identifies Guernsey as a leading
jurisdiction for both start-up managers and established funds.
Here, Guernsey Finance Deputy Chief Executive, Strategy, Dr Andy
Sloan discusses Guernsey's green finance credentials.
Guernsey has been identified as an 'emerging global
contender' in green finance. In a climate currently led by the
global commitments made at the United Nations COP 21 conference in
2015, Guernsey has identified green issues as a key strategic
objective.
The island is rapidly becoming the "go to"
international finance centre for green finance. The introduction by
the regulator, the Guernsey Financial Services Commission, of the
world's first regulated green fund product, the "Guernsey
Green Fund" puts us at the forefront of green finance
development.
