Jersey Finance is a not-for-profit organisation established in 2001 to represent and promote Jersey as an international finance centre of excellence. With a presence in Jersey, London, Dubai, Hong Kong SAR, Johannesburg, New York, Shanghai and Singapore, Jersey Finance works across multiple international markets to promote Jersey’s financial services offering.

Events are a core and essential component of Jersey Finance’s overall marketing and business development strategy. Each year, Jersey Finance delivers 150+ events globally, centrally planned and managed from Jersey, working closely with internal teams, Member firms, intermediaries, Government of Jersey, regulators and a wide range of external partners.

The events programme spans a diverse portfolio of activity, including large-scale international conferences (500+ delegates), panel events, roundtables, networking receptions, private dinners and thought leadership forums. Events are delivered both on-island and off-island and are designed to achieve clear strategic objectives, with performance measured through attendance, audience engagement, stakeholder feedback and cost-effectiveness.

The Events Team is central to Jersey Finance’s mission, translating organisational objectives into high-quality, face-to-face experiences that build relationships and reinforce Jersey’s position as a leading international finance centre.
