A delegation of officials and practitioners from Guernsey has
been raising the profile of the Island's finance sector in
Mumbai, India.
Peter Niven, Chief Executive of Guernsey Finance – the
promotional agency for the Island's finance industry, was
joined by Jonathan Hooley, the former senior tax partner at KPMG in the Channel Islands, as well as Stuart
Platt-Ransom, Group Managing Director of Legis Group
and John Morris, Director of Trust and Corporate at Legis
Group.
At the start of last week Mr Niven accompanied Mr Platt-Ransom
and Mr Morris for a series of meetings with lawyers and accountants
in Mumbai. Then Mr Niven and Mr Platt-Ransom attended the Asia Venture
Capital Journal (AVCJ) conference, which is an event where
Guernsey Finance had a presence last year, to reinforce the
Island's credentials as a leading domicile for private equity
funds.
