The list of nominees from the Channel Islands and Isle of Man shortlisted for a Citywealth International Financial Centre Award 2027 has now been released by the judges.
The public vote is now open to allow the global private wealth industry to have their say.
As many as thirty-six outstanding professionals and over fifty companies – based in or with branches in the Crown Dependencies – feature in the shortlist over forty categories.
Jersey is up again for the prestigious IFC of the Year 2027 award, having won the accolade for 13 years.
The Citywealth IFC Awards, now in their sixteenth year, were established to highlight the excellence of the advisors and managers in the private wealth sector within the major international financial centres.
Karen Jones, CEO of Citywealth noted: “Money is on the move. The world’s wealthiest families are actively restructuring and relocating capital in response to shifting tax regimes, geopolitical uncertainty, and the search for long-term stability. The International Financial Centres, organisations and individuals recognised in this year’s Citywealth IFC Awards shortlist, are ideally positioned to capture a meaningful share of that flow.”
