Connect with us at our Middle East private wealth roadshow in Abu Dhabi and Riyadh to learn what Guernsey has to offer in this key market.

Guernsey Finance is proud to bring a specialist delegation to attend the STEP Arabia conference on 9-10 November in Abu Dhabi,  which we are pleased to support as Gold Sponsor of the Welcome Drinks Reception. 

Meet our delegation to hear more about what makes Guernsey a globally recognised leader in private wealth, family office management and structuring. In attendance will be Guernsey Finance Middle East Market Development Representative Aaron Russell-Davison, our South African Representative Grant McLeod, Aston CEO James Bennett, and Simon Bowden Managing Director at IAM Advisory.   The delegation will also hold a series of meetings in Riyadh from 11–13 November and host a private dinner.

Guernsey’s breadth and depth of products and services offer the new generation of HNWI’s many options for expert financial planning and asset management. The island also boasts a long history of financing philanthropy and the transition to net zero, allowing clients to fully explore how their wealth can be used for a positive impact in the world.

Speaker

James Bennett

CEO AstonCM

James started his career in financial services in the wealth management sector before setting up his own practice out of Switzerland, focusing on emerging markets as a client base. 

Whilst he built this company, he identified a gap in the market for HNW individuals and international workers looking for transparent and well-delivered foreign exchange transactions. This gave rise to the creation of Aston Currency Management in the UK and, several years later, the creation of Aston CM Guernsey.
