Financial firms in Guernsey could be charged 4.3% more in regulatory fees from 2027 under proposals published by the Guernsey Financial Services Commission (GFSC).<\/p>\n

The commission said the increase was in line with inflation and reflected the cost of maintaining effective regulation, including investment in staff, technology and specialist expertise.<\/p>\n

The proposals, which are now out for consultation, would apply from 1 January next year if approved.<\/p>\n

In a consultation paper, external<\/a>, the GFSC said the proposed increase was “in line with Bailiwick inflation” and was intended to ensure it could continue to provide “effective, high-quality regulation”.<\/p>\n

GFSC said its financial planning reflected “the need to invest in the people, technology and specialist skills required to supervise an increasingly multi-faceted financial services sector”.<\/p>\n

It said the fees were also designed to support the ambitions of Guernsey’s Finance Sector Strategy 2035, external<\/a>, to support sustainable growth in the sector.<\/p>\n

The increase would help fund work on the strategy, including projects aimed at developing the island’s digital finance sector, it added.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Financial firms in Guernsey could be charged 4.3% more in regulatory fees from 2027 under proposals published by…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":761751,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[11],"tags":[84,1294,56,54,55],"class_list":["post-761750","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-economy","tag-business","tag-economy","tag-uk","tag-united-kingdom","tag-unitedkingdom"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/761750","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=761750"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/761750\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/761751"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=761750"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=761750"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=761750"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
