Highvern has this week announced the acquisition of Guernsey and Swiss-based Noble Trust Company, broadening the Jersey-headquartered business’s servicing capabilities.
This move further extends Highvern’s multi-jurisdictional proposition following the launch of its UK office in 2021 and Dublin based business earlier this month.
The acquisition, completion of which is subject to regulatory approval, will expand Highvern’s offering across the Channel Islands and signals a strong commitment to and investment in the Guernsey marketplace. The addition of a Swiss office will also complement Highvern’s existing family office services in this newly regulated jurisdiction.
Martin Hall, Managing Director, Highvern said: “We welcome the addition of Noble Trust Company and its staff who share our passion for working with high-net-worth individuals to forge long-lasting relationships. We very much look forward to working with them in growing the combined businesses.
“Together we plan to offer the same attentive and personalised service for which we have become known, and continue our success story by leveraging the wider group capabilities.”
Sébastien Moerman, who has successfully built Noble over the last several years, added: “We are extremely excited at the prospect of being part of Highvern, a group that we already feel very comfortable with and who we are confident will offer increased possibilities for our staff, clients and prospects alike.”
