The trustees, fiduciaries, settlors and beneficiaries of private wealth structures are invariably keen to explore new or alternative investment opportunities. A smaller scale collective investment approach involving one or more private wealth vehicles is becoming more common. We have significant experience advising on the applicability of the Jersey Private Funds regime to private wealth structures.
A Jersey Private Fund is a private investment fund which involves the pooling of capital raised for the fund from 50 or fewer investors, which operates on the principle of risk spreading. It can take a number of forms, including companies, unit trusts and limited partnerships.
If it is appropriate in the circumstances, structures can be established for the purpose of enabling a pooled investment via a family trust, which pools its assets with a small select group of other parties, including another family trust, for example.
We can provide advice in relation to the establishment and ongoing operation of Jersey Private Funds in a private wealth context, or indeed an analysis of the participants in the structure to determine whether the structure would benefit from certain exemptions.
We have significant experience advising on the establishment of Jersey Private Funds and on related matters, including
advising a family office on the establishment of a Jersey investment management company to construct a portfolio of investments in innovative companies
advising a UK-based family office on the establishment of trusts, holding vehicle and a discretionary investment platform involving multiple Jersey Private Funds to hold real estate assets
advising a UK-based family office on the establishment of a Jersey Private Fund to invest in insurance-linked securities
Due to the popularity and ease of establishment of JPFs, we are often asked to advise whether they are an appropriate vehicle for the purposes of structuring family office investments.
Group Partner Emily Haithwaite discusses the specific considerations in relation to JPFs, and their benefits for entrepreneurial families, in this article: Structuring Family office investments using Jersey Private Funds.
