Jersey Wins Best IFC at the Wealthbriefing MENA Awards

21 November 2025

Jersey has been awarded the Best International Finance Centre (IFC) in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region at the Annual WealthBriefing MENA Awards 2025, for the eighth time since the awards began.

The gala ceremony took place on Thursday 20 November at the Armani Hotel, Dubai with Faizal Bhana, Jersey Finance’s Director for the Middle East, Africa and India, accepting the award.

Now in their twelfth year, The WealthBriefing MENA Awards serve as a platform to showcase top-class performance, innovation and achievement within the financial services sector and MENA market.

Jersey’s financial and professional services firms take great pride in their deep and long-standing relationships across the MENA region – relationships built on the Island’s stability, robust regulatory standards and highly skilled workforce.

We’re therefore delighted to see that commitment recognised through this award. Following our Perspectives Women in Leadership series held in the Middle East in October, annual Dubai conference and sponsorship of STEP Arabia earlier this month and events in Riyadh and Jedda just this week, we’re more committed than ever to the Gulf region – building even stronger partnerships and engaging with a vibrant financial services community that we’re confident will continue to grow and flourish.
