The hugely popular Jersey Private Fund ("JPF") has been a global success story for Jersey since its launch in 2017 following the publication of the Jersey Private Fund Guide (the "JPF Guide") by the Jersey Financial Services Commission (the "JFSC").

This simplified Jersey private fund product was established on the basis of a light-touch regulatory regime, with emphasis placed on the regulated Jersey fund administrator (the "designated service provider" or "DSP") to assess the suitability and track record of a fund promoter and to keep the JFSC notified of any changes to the fund over its lifespan.

Jersey has a wealth of regulated administrators with experience in all asset classes able to provide the support and services of the DSP role.
