Strategic Alliances Forged in Dubai

Collaboration between jurisdictions, asset managers, family offices and advisory networks are vital in deepening client value, managing complexity and strengthening international financial connectivity, according to speakers at Jersey Finance’s flagship annual Dubai conference held last night (12 November).

Hosted at the Address Sky View in Dubai, the event this year was entitled “Forging Strategic Alliances” and welcomed senior professionals from across the GCC advisory community, global wealth experts, and Jersey-based finance specialists.

This year’s conference marks another milestone in our growing engagement across the Gulf. Building on the strong momentum of previous editions, the 2025 conference featured a keynote on “Strategic Alliances 1:1 – Building Trust and Earning Confidence”, panel discussions on “Family Offices in an Interconnected World” and a fireside chat “Navigating the Future – Governance and Strategy in Family Businesses”.

Senior industry figures shared insights on evolving client needs, cross-border wealth management and how trusted jurisdictions like Jersey continue to play a pivotal role in facilitating transparent, compliant and innovative financial solutions.

The annual Dubai conference is one of our flagship international events, providing a platform for dialogue among family offices, trustees, legal and tax advisers, fund managers and private client professionals from across the Middle East, UK and Jersey.

The event also concluded a week of regional engagements led by the Jersey Finance Middle East Regional Hub, based at the Dubai International Financial Centre (DIFC), underscoring Jersey’s commitment to deepening relationships and supporting sustainable financial growth across the GCC.

In addition to the Annual Dubai Conference, Jersey Finance was a Platinum sponsor of STEP Arabia’s Annual Conference 2025, another leading regional forum that brought together private wealth professionals, legal advisers and fiduciary experts to discuss the evolving dynamics of wealth management and succession planning in the Middle East.

These back-to-back engagements underscore Jersey Finance’s commitment to fostering collaboration and providing solutions and expertise in cross-border finance across the region’s international finance community.
