Deloitte has made two senior promotions to its Guernsey audit, advisory and tax teams.
Mike De Robillard has been promoted to Director. He has particular expertise in investment management and listed funds audits, across a broad range of alternative asset classes such as real estate, forestry and debt funds.
His role also includes his involvement in transaction services, notably funds listing on the London Stock Exchange Main Market.
Mike’s credentials include delivery of audit services and advice to Deloitte’s largest and most complex Guernsey fund clients. These involve specialist asset classes with challenging valuation methodologies. He has been with Deloitte since 2005, when he joined the Cayman Island office and subsequently moved to Guernsey with in 2009.
Martin Popplewell's promotion to Director reflects his role in leading the Deloitte tax information exchange offering across the Crown Dependencies, and his in-depth knowledge of regulatory frameworks such as FATCA.
Martin joined the Guernsey office in 2010 from Deloitte’s Leeds tax practice. His move to Guernsey coincided with the introduction of the US FATCA regime. The expertise and industry knowledge he has built up around Tax Information Exchange Agreements (TIEAs) and FATCA is reflected by his broad client portfolio, his involvement in working parties, discussions with the local tax offices in all three islands and his regular appearances as a guest speaker at industry events.
