Investment management

Guernsey is an established centre for investment management, home to a diverse range of niche investment firms with well-qualified and experienced staff.

Industry participants provide fund management, discretionary investment management, advised and execution-only broking to private clients, investment funds and institutions.

The competitive markets in which Guernsey firms operate, ensure staff display the highest standards of professionalism and practice.

Innovation and enterprise

Guernsey’s principles-based regulatory and risk-based supervisory regime provides a platform outside the EU for innovation in the design and delivery of investment products and services.

Guernsey’s regime provides room for start-ups, innovative operations and niche providers and the variety and proximity of Guernsey-licensed investment firms creates an excellent environment for innovation and enterprise. 

Accessible and accountable

Investment professionals in Guernsey are accessible and accountable to clients.

In addition to regulatory protections, clients of Guernsey investment managers can be assured that they can pass scrutiny of neighbours and friends with whom they share a small island – we call this ‘the supermarket test’.
