Jersey Responds To Report On Crown Dependencies,
by Jason Gorringe, Tax-News.com, London
Wednesday, April 22, 2009
Jersey’s Chief Minister has welcomed the findings of an interim report into
British Offshore Finance Centres. In his progress report, Michael Foot explains
how he intends to tackle his review of British Crown Dependencies and Overseas
Territories.
He has set out the issues he wants to explore, which include:
How centres are managing the effects of the economic downturn.
What opportunities are likely to arise as global markets recover.
Whether more should be done to strengthen regulatory co-operation and
the sharing of technical expertise, particularly between local regulators and
the UK’s Financial Services Authority.
The mechanisms available for responding to major economic shocks.
The implementation of new international standards of regulation and
information exchange.
Jersey’s Chief Minister, Senator Terry Le Sueur, has said: “The
report is a very constructive explanation of how Michael Foot’s review
will be conducted. It confirms there will be continued collaboration with the
UK government at a time of international uncertainty, and makes it clear that
the constitutional position of the financial centres is not within its scope.”
“We have always been confident that Jersey’s position as a well-regulated
finance centre which meets global standards of financial regulation and information
exchange would be recognised internationally. We are delighted that the OECD
confirmed this in a report published after the G20 summit earlier this month,
which highlights Jersey as one of the jurisdictions that have substantially
implemented the internationally agreed tax standard, alongside jurisdictions
like the UK, USA, France and Germany.”
“We will continue to work with the international community as the OECD
and other global organisations develop frameworks for strengthening governance
of the world economy.”
