Discussions included global market access, substance and transparency, beneficial ownership, regulation, legal familiarity, fund structures, expertise in administration and example investments into the UK.
Guernsey Finance Chief Executive Rupert Pleasant said: “The presentation was an ideal opportunity to showcase our expertise in private equity and venture capital, and we look forward to solidifying our relationship with the British Business Bank and creating a strong and regular flow of business.
“I would like to say a huge thank you to Ian Connatty and all the attendees from the British Business Bank for making us feel so welcome.”
