The growth and future evolution of Jersey’s funds industry is set to be the theme of this year’s Jersey Funds Association (JFA) Annual Dinner next month.

Taking place on Friday 19 June at the Royal Jersey Showground in Trinity, the event will celebrate the ongoing evolution of Jersey’s funds industry over the past twelve months, providing a platform for the JFA to showcase industry growth, as well as a forum for discussion and networking.

2025 was another positive year for Jersey’s funds sector, with total Assets Under Administration (AUA) growing by 5% over the year - doubling over the past ten years - and more than 100 new Jersey Private Funds being established over the 12 months. The JFA Annual Dinner will be celebrating this upward trajectory, whilst pointing to the key developments, including enhancements to the JPF regime as well as future innovation.

The popular event is set to be attended by more than 450 professionals from across Jersey’s diverse funds landscape, with Lucy Porter as guest speaker for the dinner.

Lucy has been a huge hit with comedy audiences for over ten years with her distinctive, bouncy, feel-good comedy. Lucy is a regular face and voice on TV and radio panel shows and is a glutton for a good quiz show. She has continued to travel internationally with her stand-up – taking in the Far East including shows in Hong Kong, Bangkok, Macau, Manila, Switzerland and Paris. She was also invited to Miami to take part in NBC’s Last Comic Standing and has performed in the States for NBC and HBO at their Las Vegas Comedy Festival. She remains amongst the most sought-after comedy writers in Britain.

The JFA is also pleased to welcome back Gold Sponsor, Mourant, as well as the Silver Sponsors for the event, BNP Paribas, B-Flexion, Gen II and Ogier. The JFA is also grateful for the continued support of Next-Generation Table Sponsors PwC and KPMG, and Technology Sponsor Allvue.

Joel Hernandez, Chairman ofthe JFA, said:

“With Jersey operating in a competitive marketplace, it’s vital that we continue to innovate and evolve. Over the past year the funds industry has demonstrated its ability to do just that. Looking ahead, the next year is likely to bring more positive change and innovation. I’m looking forward to coming together at our JFA Annual Dinner to celebrate the industry’s evolution and continued success.”
