Jersey Finance recently hosted a well-attended event in Dubai focused on the evolving role of the NextGen in family enterprises. The event, held in collaboration with Cyril Amarchand Mangaldas and FAME Advisory DMCC, brought together distinguished speakers to discuss succession planning and the modernisation of family businesses from an Indian and global perspective.
The discussion highlighted the increasing influence of the NextGen, who are globally educated and digitally savvy. The speakers addressed the shift in focus from traditional stewardship to strategic innovation, driving diversification into technology, ESG, and impact-driven investments.
Insights from Jersey, India, the UAE, and the City of London underscored a major trend: a significant increase in the use of the India-GCC-City of London-Jersey corridor. This strategic route is becoming a vital channel for cross-border wealth, enabling NextGen leaders to navigate complex multi-jurisdictional tax networks, establish robust legal structures, and access specialised advisory expertise. The event emphasised how this corridor is now a crucial, active channel for moving assets and fuelling global growth.
Speakers included experts from Cyril Amarchand Mangaldas, FAME Advisory DMCC, RAKC Holdings Limited, Standard Chartered Global Private Bank, Gulf Islamic Investments (GII), and FPP.
