Financial services in Jersey

The International Finance Centre

Financial services in Jersey are a highly important part of the economy of the British island of Jersey.

Jersey is considered to be an offshore financial centre (OFC) and one of the most economically successful OFCs in the world.[1] Jersey has the preconditions to be a microstate, but it is a self-governing Crown dependency of the UK.[2] It is sometimes considered to be a tax haven.[3] As of 2021, Jersey has received an AA-credit rating from Standard and Poors.[4]
