Structuring success with Moore Stephens Jersey

As Jersey has grown into one of the world’s most respected international finance centres, Moore Stephens has expanded alongside it, offering structures and solutions that combine local expertise with global reach. Here, Nick Solt, Director and Head of Fund and Corporate Services at the firm’s Jersey office, sets out how the firm builds long-term relationships, supports private clients, corporates and fund managers, and leverages the strength of the Moore network to deliver value across multiple jurisdictions

Moore Stephens in Jersey is proud to represent the Moore Global network, a leading alliance of independent accountants and advisers. With more than 37,000 professionals working in 563 offices across 116 countries, the Moore network has been delivering trusted audit, advisory, tax and legal services for nearly 120 years.

For over five decades, Moore Stephens has grown alongside Jersey itself as the island developed into a respected and wellregulated international finance centre. From our base here, we support a diverse range of clients, from high-net-worth individuals and families to corporate groups and fund managers, offering services that combine global insight with local expertise.

We go beyond traditional accountancy. In addition to audit and advisory work, we provide administration and support services for clients seeking efficient structures to bring capital and investment into jurisdictions internationally.

Our independence allows us to build long-term relationships, delivering excellence and value for our clients. And as part of the global Moore network, we can offer seamless multi-jurisdictional solutions.

Jersey’s stable legal and regulatory environment gives clients confidence to make long-term structuring and investment decisions. We have qualified professionals providing services to private clients, larger corporate structures and fund managers and promoters within the stable, tried-and-tested legal and regulatory framework here in Jersey. This gives clients the confidence to make long-term structuring and investment decisions.

Structures can take a range of forms which can include companies, trusts, foundations, limited partnerships and unit trusts dependent on the needs of the client.

Our private client team works closely with high-net-worth individuals and their families to structure asset ownership and manage cross-border investments, an area of growing importance in today’s globalised world. For corporate clients, we establish efficient vehicles to facilitate international investment and business expansion. Jersey’s versatile structures, such as the popular Jersey Property Unit Trust, are especially effective for real estate investment, a space in which Moore Stephens has extensive experience.

Jersey entities can also be used for raising capital through a listing with the International Stock Exchange (TISE), offering a recognised flexible alternative to a listing in London or other jurisdictions.

In the fund sphere, the Jersey regulatory framework allows for the creation of collective investment vehicles with the Jersey Private Fund. This provides a proportionately regulated option for fund promoters looking for a cost- and time-efficient option for launching their platform.

At Moore Stephens, we combine technical expertise with a passion for service. Our team will assist clients from the development and formation of their structure and throughout its life.

What’s more, we’re proud to live and work in the beautiful island of Jersey. It’s an island with stunning coastlines, a rich cultural heritage and close connections to both the UK and mainland Europe. It’s a lifestyle that matches the professionalism of our offering, and we always welcome the opportunity to introduce new clients not only to our services, but to Jersey itself.
