Establishing Shari’ah Funds And Islamic Finance Structures…..In Guernsey

Guernsey has a strong offering for Shari'ah funds and Islamic finance structures:

• Our service providers (administrators, custodians, lawyers, tax advisers and accountants) have experience and expertise of working with promoters and Shari'ah advisers to create bespoke funds which comply with the fundamental principles of Islamic finance.

• We recognise that funds need to be established taking into account the branch of Islam/geographical location of investors. Our service providers also appreciate the importance of maintaining the Shari'ah-compliant status of the funds and therefore have put in place systems and training to ensure that Shari'ah funds can be properly serviced.
