Highvern launches fund administration business in Guernsey

Private wealth, funds, and corporate services provider Highvern is launching fund administration services in Guernsey.

The move is a significant milestone in Highvern's growth strategy, further solidifying its position as a prominent player in the offshore financial services industry and expanding its group fund services proposition.

To lead this initiative, Highvern has appointed two experienced professionals from the funds industry. Jenni Hartley joins as head of funds - Guernsey, bringing over 20 years of expertise across funds, fiduciary, and regulatory markets with an in-depth understanding of regulated entities in the Channel Islands. Ali Moullin, appointed as associate director, brings a wealth of knowledge across various offshore funds, covering private equity, debt, infrastructure, real estate and fund of funds.

Hartley said: "Highvern's commitment to setting new standards in service delivery aligns with my own professional values. I am excited to contribute to the growth of our new fund services in Guernsey, leveraging my skills to provide exceptional solutions for our clients."

Moullin said: “I am looking forward to becoming part of this dynamic team, delivering something both unique and innovative to the Guernsey funds market and celebrating the Highvern journey. This is an exciting opportunity to contribute to the firm's continued success.”

Highvern entered the Guernsey market in early 2022. Since then, the company has continued to build out its expertise in private wealth, developing Highvern’s reputation as a firm that operates with integrity, discretion, and responsibility.

Hartley and Moullin will report to Aidan O’Flanagan, group head of funds, who led the launch and development of Highvern’s fund services business in Jersey. He said: "Adding Guernsey as a further jurisdiction to our fund offering alongside Jersey and Ireland, each of which have been organic build outs, is a testament to our commitment to delivering excellence and value to our clients."
