Gibraltar Finance steps up its presence in London
In accordance with their 2014 Business Plan released last week, Gibraltar Finance will be attending, exhibiting and speaking at the Family Wealth Management and Structuring Conference, commonly referred to as FWM, organised by Campden Wealth Ltd. Local industry representatives will be attending and supporting this event.
Paul Astengo, Senior Executive with Gibraltar Finance will lead the team at the event hosted at the Liberal Club in London on 8th and 9th April 2014.
This is the first occasion that Gibraltar Finance will be present at FWM. We have identified it as a key event given the content and the quality of speakers, both of which are very relevant to our proposition.
The two-day event, first held in 2002, focuses on how professional intermediaries can best serve the private client and it attracts in excess of 100 delegates. The structure of the event includes keynote presentations, panel discussions and case studies. Paul Astengo will be representing Gibraltar at a panel discussion titled “Location, Location, Location” and will present Gibraltar as the onshore European finance centre of choice for the private client.
Minister for Financial Services, Albert Isola commented, “The challenge facing the Gibraltar Finance team is to take our jurisdiction to wherever there is a clearly identified market for Gibraltar. This event clearly fits the bill. This Government’s commitment to make Gibraltar the finance centre of choice remains absolute and our support for this event bears testament to this. 2014 promises to be an incredibly busy year and I am confident of the success that our efforts will bring across this sector.”
