Many Strings To Bow Of Best Centre For Fund Administration, Guernsey

Guernsey's innovation, world-leading capabilities and evidence of fund growth were all key as the island was named 'Best Centre for Fund Administration' at the 2017 Investment Week Fund Services Awards.

The results were announced in a ceremony at the Royal Garden Hotel in London on 3 October, with the jurisdiction fending off competition from fellow international finance centres Jersey, Luxembourg and Dublin.

Guernsey Finance Chief Executive Dominic Wheatley said the award was testament to the hard work being done in the island's funds sector by all parties.

He said: "Guernsey's funds industry is going from strength to strength and that's thanks to government, industry, the regulator and Guernsey Finance. The island embraces new technologies and ideas and we anticipate further success for our funds sector in the future."
