My arrival in Monte Carlo ended up being 16 hours later than
planned, involving planes, trains and automobiles and an overnight
stay in Paris. This meant I ended up having 14 meetings as opposed
to 17. Apologies to those I had to stand up.
I attended the Monte Carlo Rendez-Vous de Septembre 2024 wearing
two hats, one as Guernsey Finance's UK Insurance
Representative and one as a director of HIPCC, Hampden's
Guernsey Protected Cell Company.
Alongside some very worthwhile meetings, the highlight of my
trip was co-hosting Guernsey Finance's Champagne Reception at
the Hotel Hermitage on the Tuesday evening with Rupert Pleasant,
Guernsey Finance's Chief Executive. We had a spectacular
venue on a terrace overlooking the marina, with the sun shining,
which was a relief after the biblical rains on Sunday.
