The team also offers relevant corporate law support to clients and combines expertise in Jersey and Guernsey with capabilities in key EU jurisdictions, Ireland and Luxembourg. The firm also provides Cayman and BVI funds advice, ensuring accessible and timely support for clients.
Matt Guthrie, partner and global head of Private Wealth, commented: “This recognition reflects the calibre of people we have across our international Private Wealth practice and the way they collaborate every day to deliver the best outcomes for clients.”
