The investment funds sector in Jersey has experienced considerable success in recent years. The island is well on its way to setting itself apart from other offshore centres as the first-choice domicile for alternative investment funds and as a leading administration centre.

A recent part of the effort to promote the funds industry is the new listed fund regime, introduced by the Jersey Financial Services Commission (JFSC) with effect from 9 January, 2007. This new regime follows on from the very successful expert fund and non-domiciled funds regimes and should contribute to a period of continued and accelerated growth in the Jersey investment funds sector.
