It's actually been quite timely that, during a week when
there was much political uncertainty, particularly in the UK with
Brexit negotiations still the source of much confusion and MPs
resigning from both main parties to form a new independent group,
Jersey has been able to provide some positive support to the
international investment community.
Figures announced last week for our funds industry, for
instance, showed that more and more alternative fund managers are
putting their faith in Jersey to bring their EU-focused funds to
market through Jersey – the number of managers doing so rose
13% over 2018.
These figures follow a well-received masterclass focused on fund
distribution held in conjunction with the Jersey Funds Association
the previous week in London, attended by around 100 fund
professionals.
