Jersey, 25 July 2025 — Altum Group welcomes the latest enhancements to the Jersey Private Fund (JPF) Guide, announced by the Jersey Financial Services Commission (JFSC) and the Government of Jersey. These changes, which will come into effect on 6 August 2025, mark a significant step forward in reinforcing Jersey’s competitiveness as a jurisdiction for private capital.

The updates to the JPF Regime include:

  • Removal of the 50-investor/offer cap, Broader definitions of eligible investors, including UK professional clients and US accredited investors
  • 24-hour regulatory approval process for JPFs via registered Designated Service Providers (DSPs)
  • Permission for JPFs to be listed, subject to JFSC consent

These enhancements follow extensive industry consultation and aim to further streamline Jersey’s fund structuring environment while maintaining the high regulatory standards the jurisdiction is known for.

“This is a necessary evolution of the regime, it gives managers more room to operate, while keeping the integrity and speed Jersey’s known for. It’s a clear message, we’re open for business, and we’re listening to the needs of fund managers.”
