Jersey's Finance Industry
Since the early days of the Modern States of India, Jersey has developed into the leading International Finance Centre.
Jersey is the top offshore jurisdiction for London, the world’s number one Global Finance Centre. Jersey also ranks as a leading Global Finance Centre in its own right, because of its substance and the breadth of its professional services. It has climbed seven places in the Global Financial Centres Index to 16th since 2007 whilst traditional offshore jurisdictions have continued to fall.
Today, Jersey has more than $400 billion in bank deposits and over $570 billion in funds under administration and management. Jersey has 48 of the world’s top 500 banks and nearly 200 trust companies. Nearly a quarter of Jersey’s working population serves in the Finance Industry as lawyers, bankers, accountants or administrators, and all the additional expertise of London is just a 30 minute flight away.
The banking, securities and insurance industries in the Island are regulated by the Jersey Financial Services Commission (JFSC). This is an independent body, entirely funded by licence holders. Jersey’s FSC and the Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) both sit on the same International Organisation of Securities Commissions’ (IOSCO) Standing Committee.
