Enhancements to the Jersey Private Fund regime
We have published key enhancements to the Jersey Private Fund (JPF) Guide, designed to strengthen the framework and ensure it continues to align with the needs of international professional investors.
Effective from 6 August 2025, these changes:
- lift the 50-offer/investor cap
- expand the definition of professional investor
- allow the listing of interests in JPFs with the JFSC's consent
- introduce a 24-hour authorisation process for JPF applications submitted by registered Designated Service Providers
Our Director General, Jill Britton, said: ‘The updated JPF regime is a significant step, keeping Jersey’s fund offering evolving with the needs of industry. JPFs continue to be a regulated product that investors can have confidence in - these changes streamline the regime and, together with our commitment to faster authorisation, we are underscoring our commitment to excellent service.’
The revised JPF Guide and a new statutory instrument, the Collective Investment Funds (Jersey Private Funds) Order, demonstrate Jersey’s commitment to innovation and aligns with a global shift toward bespoke, efficient private fund vehicles for professional investors. These enhancements are the result of a focussed collaborative effort by the JFSC, the Jersey Funds Association, Jersey Association of Trust Companies, Jersey Finance, industry stakeholders and the Government of Jersey.
