| Jersey - A tradition of Excellence in Financial Services |
Jersey
is the largest of the Channel Islands which are situated in
the English Channel just a few miles from the French coast.
The Channel Islands are not part of the United Kingdom but are
a part of the British Isles which gives them a unique constitutional
link, but one that offers complete financial and fiscal independence.
Jersey is neither represented in the United Kingdom Parliament
nor involved with, or subject to, the judicial and administrative
systems of the United Kingdom.

The
Channel Islands have a sophisticated financial and
trust industry, which in Jersey represents 43% of
the island's economy and employs over 10,000 people
- 20% of the island's workforce. Jersey welcomes quality
business from clients all over the world but maintains
strict safeguards in order to protect its excellent
reputation. Recent legislation has been introduced
to further reinforce Jersey's position.
All
financial institutions are regulated and supervised in Jersey
by the Government's Finance and Economics Committee. Supervision
is implemented by the Jersey Financial Services Commission which
exerts close control over all financial institutions and trust
companies.

There are many types of trusts, which we can provide
further information and advice on as necessary. However, the most widely
used form of trust is the Discretionary Trust. Although not always possible,
we prefer to meet you personally prior to entering into a client relationship
in order to discuss your particular objectives in order for us to provide
a tailor made structure for you.
