Guernsey Finance has appointed Christopher Chan as its first Hong Kong Representative.
Taking up his post later this month, Christopher will lead Guernsey’s promotional efforts in Hong Kong as well as be an on-the-ground presence for Guernsey Finance and its member firms. He will also assist with promotion in the wider South East Asia region.
Christopher has worked in Hong Kong’s financial and corporate services sector for the past six years, with a focus on business development.
The promotional agency opened its Hong Kong office in March last year. It was initially used as a base from which Guernsey Finance’s Shanghai-based China Representative, Wendy Weng, carried out further promotional activities in South East Asia.
It has also been used by the Guernsey Financial Services Commission (GFSC) to provide regulatory advice to those in the region who might be considering Guernsey-specific ventures.
