As both Jersey and Guernsey have continued to successfully challenge the historic dominance of the Caribbean offshore jurisdictions for the European focused funds market, so our practice has grown substantially, all of which has been aided by a proactive and responsive regulatory environment in both Jersey and Guernsey leading to improvements in the speed and efficiency with which hedge funds can be formed and administered in either jurisdiction. From our offices in Jersey, Guernsey and London our team benefits from having senior lawyers with many years of experience of hedge fund activity in Jersey, Guernsey and other offshore jurisdictions allowing us to advise on numerous complex issues with the benefit of practical insight. The continued success of the Channel Island Stock Exchange and recent legislative developments allowing for the creation of protected cell and incorporated cell structures have all improved the attractiveness of the Channel Islands for hedge funds. We work extensively with local and international fund managers and administrators on a broad range of fund structures covering many diversified markets. The emergence of Jersey as a highly credible 'European' offshore funds domicile has also attracted the interest of managers looking to redomicile the management of their funds portfolio and we are able to advise managers on all aspects of such process. |
