Ogier's Jersey and Hong Kong offices have advised on the
establishment of the first ever Managed Trust Company in Jersey for
a Chinese institution.
The Jersey Financial Services Commission has issued a licence to
Ark Trust (Jersey) Limited, a subsidiary of Chinese firm Noah
Wealth Management.
Under the terms of the licence, Noah will be able to offer
Jersey trust structures to clients, but the administration will be
provided by an existing trust services provider based in
Jersey.
Raulin Amy led the Jersey team including Katherine Neal and
Steve Meiklejohn on the work, while the Hong Kong element of the
work was led by Lara Mardell.
Raulin said: "This is work that breaks new ground, which is
something that we have been focussed on since we opened our Hong
Kong office almost a decade ago.
"The co-operation between our six jurisdictions enables us
not just to create and advise on a wider range of alternatives to
fit the individual needs of our clients, it also enables us to
advise on cross-jurisdictional activity such as this."
