newsThe Gibraltar Finance Centre, together with members of the Gibraltar Funds and Investments Association will be attending, exhibiting and presenting at Invest ’13 Conference in Geneva on 18th and 19th September 2013.

The Gibraltar delegation is led by Senior Finance Executives Michael Ashton and Philip Canessa. Excellent support by industry partners has resulted in a significant Gibraltar presence that will ensure we maintain an important impact at this key international event.

In addition Philip Canessa will make a 20 minute address to the conference on “Gibraltar – a unique AIFM jurisdiction within the EU.”

The Gibraltar Finance Centre's attendance at this prestigious annual event will receive even greater prominence as a double stand has been commissioned and strategically located in the conference hall.

Gibraltar will be presenting its case as a domicile of choice within the European Union single market for the establishment of asset management companies requiring the facility to passport throughout the EU and EEA and within AIFMD.

Albert Isola, Minister for Financial Services commented, ‘Tthe Government committed to drive growth in the financial services sector as a key component of our economic policy. This is part of our ambitious plans for growth and we have provided the Finance Centre Department with the necessary resources to achieve this. The recent appointment of two further Senior Finance Centre Executives is an indication of our complete commitment to work with the private sector in meeting our objectives. Invest ’13 is an essential date in the diary of the funds industry worldwide and it is right that we should have a significant and highly visible presence there”.
