KPMG has announced several changes to its Channel Islands tax team in the Crown Dependencies.
John Riva moves to a new role as Head of Tax with the KPMG Islands Group (KIG), in addition to becoming a member of the KPMG Tax Steering Group for Europe, Middle East and Africa.
Meanwhile, Tony Mancini (pictured) takes on the position of Head of Tax for the entire Crown Dependencies firm.
John has been a Partner with KPMG for 25 years, during which time there has been continued growth, including the merger with the Isle of Man firm in 2021, creating a professional services business serving Jersey, Guernsey and Isle of Man.
The Crown Dependencies firm is a part of KIG, a sub-region of KPMG, and includes a number of financial service centres such as Jersey, Guernsey, Isle of Man, Malta, Bermuda, Cayman Islands, BVI and other Caribbean islands.
As John dedicates his time to KIG, Tony will assume responsibility for the tax function across the whole of the Crown Dependencies.
From his base in Guernsey, Tony will drive the firm’s tax strategy with a strong focus on trust, consistency and quality. As a Chartered Tax Adviser and former HM Inspector of Taxes in the UK, Tony has been advising multinational businesses and high-net-worth individuals on UK, Guernsey and international tax issues since 1991.
Finally, Paul Eastwood will take on full responsibility of the Jersey tax operations.
Paul has been advising on tax matters since 1998 in a mixture of roles and was previously the Deputy Comptroller of Taxes for Jersey, with responsibility for domestic tax policy and international tax matters.
In the Isle of Man, Robert Rotherham continues in his role as Tax Partner, leading the local tax team.
