PraxisIFM Trust has appointed Client Relationship Directors Paul Blackwell and Rupert Pleasant to its board in Guernsey.
Paul joined Confiance as a Director in June 2012 to develop the company’s fiduciary and pension services business, and joined PraxisIFM when it acquired Confiance in December. Having previously led Deloitte’s Private Client Tax Department across the Channel Islands, he has almost 15 years’ experience in advising on offshore structures.
Rupert started his career in private banking in Hong Kong, before becoming Area Manager with Barclays Wealth Management in Cape Town. Returning to Guernsey, he joined Credit Suisse in 2005 and transferred to the head office in Zurich.
In 2008, Rupert moved to Geneva and joined PraxisIFM as a Director before moving back to Guernsey in 2014. In his current role, he is responsible for an international book of clients.
