Manx State of the Nation 2025

The Alliance of Isle of Man Compliance Professionals (AICP), with lead sponsor PwC Isle of Man, invites Compliance Professionals and Directors with oversight for compliance, risk and governance within their businesses to register for the annual Manx State of the Nation (MSoN) conference on Friday 7 February 2025 at the Comis Hotel.

Colin Manley, Director at PwC Isle of Man, commented: “Manx State of the Nation remains the Isle of Man’s flagship compliance conference, bringing together professionals from across industries and supporting the maintenance of the island’s high standards of regulation. We are delighted to continue our work with the AICP and support them with a conference programme that consistently delivers important insights on the rapidly evolving risk environment.”

Gerry Ganly, AICP Chair, added: “It is hard to believe that 2025 sees the twentieth hosting of the MSoN. Some of you may have attended each one. We appreciate the ongoing support from PwC Isle of Man who are now in their eleventh year as lead sponsor. Colin Manley will deliver the results of a PwC EMEA AML survey which has had input from businesses on the Isle of Man.

“We look forward to welcoming people working at all levels and sub-sectors of the compliance profession and some of their senior management and director colleagues. Compliance knowledge across businesses enables those businesses.

“With registration and breakfast from 08.15, our Chief Minister, Hon Alfred Cannan MHK, will then deliver the opening address of the day. He will then be followed during the day by guest speakers fronting presentations and/or panel sessions on Proliferation Finance, Sanctions, Fraud, the Hazards of New Business for IoM Inc, a welcome to our new IoM Information Commissioner, and of course as ever, we will hear from the Isle of Man Financial Services Authority (IOMFSA). The conference will draw to a close at 4.45.”
