Jersey Finance Event Guidelines for Participants

In an interconnected global landscape, Jersey Finance’s events programme serves as a pivotal platform for disseminating updates, showcasing thought leadership content, and articulating forward-thinking rhetoric.

Our gatherings not only present opportunities for exchanging insights but also offer a unique forum for financial services professionals to converge and network within this diverse and dynamic community. Against this backdrop, the manner in which individuals conduct themselves becomes paramount, shaping an environment where shared values, professional respect, and ethical engagement lay the foundation for meaningful connections.

The expected conduct for all attendees at our events is guided by fundamental principles of professionalism, diversity, respect, and inclusion. Respectful behaviour, equitable treatment, and individual wellbeing are paramount. Attendees bringing guests to events should share relevant pre-event communications if we do not have their contact details to also ensure their understanding and compliance.

Applicable equally to every Jersey Finance colleague, Member firm and event participant, we demand adherence to high standards, promotion of equal treatment, and rejection of discriminatory actions. It universally applies at our events, in-person and virtual, fostering a collective commitment to equity, diversity, and inclusion and explicitly prohibit bullying, harassment, and discriminatory comments.

Excessive alcohol consumption is prohibited, and our guests must be particularly mindful of local restrictions and cultural expectations across the regions in which we operate. We expect our guests to adhere to the same principles of respect for differing local customs and practises.

This underscores our commitment to maintaining a secure and inclusive environment for all attendees at our events.

If an attendee believes these guidelines are not being followed, they are encouraged to speak to a Jersey Finance representative at the event or let us know afterwards.
