Collaboration across jurisdictions and the financial sector is vital for client value and managing complexity.
These themes were highlighted by speakers at Jersey Finance’s flagship annual Dubai conference.
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 Jersey Finance’s 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.
Joe Moynihan, CEO, Jersey Finance, said: “In a world where change is constant, the ability to build meaningful alliances is more important than ever. Our annual Dubai conference brings together the right people at the right time to share insight, build trust and shape the future of international finance.
“Jersey’s value lies not only in our robust regulation and expertise, but also in our willingness to collaborate with dynamic financial hubs like Dubai. By convening this conference in Dubai and focusing on strategic alliances, we are reinforcing our commitment to building partnerships that bridge market expertise and deliver long-term value.”
