Strong year ahead predicted

Senior partner Clive Barton
ONE of the Island’s biggest accountancy firms is predicting a strong year ahead for its own business and the Island’s finance industry as a whole.
Moore Stephens senior partner Clive Barton said that the firm was bucking the trend of the recession by recruiting more staff. The business is expecting growth during 2010 prompted by marketing trips made to a variety of nations last year by partners of the firm.
Mr Barton said: ‘I believe that there is a great deal for Jersey in general and the finance industry in particular to be optimistic about. It is for this reason that we at Moore Stephens look forward to 2010 with excitement.’
Moore Stephens partners made extensive marketing visits to India, Russia, the Middle East, Greece and Europe during 2009 to promote the firm in Jersey. Mr Barton said that much of this new business was expected to come onto the books during 2010.

The trend is looking that way with an obvious rise in employment positions this month alone, but we have to partly thank Economic Development and the Treasury Minister for their tireless work in promoting and nurturing Jersey’s number one revenue provider through a difficult recession. Looking forward I would like Jersey Finance Limited to visit Russia for potential new business if its not already in the diary for 2010?

Who was it that were auditing the firms that caused the recession? Who is that that make the rules that causes financial destruction? Who is it that are profiting from the mergers and aquisitions that are proven to ruin the real economy?
What a pile of tosh.

It is all down to tax avoidance schemes from Jersey which India, Russia, the Middle East, Greece and Europe will use accountancy firms like this one for. That is all what Jersey’s finance industry is about, tax washing things. But this gravy train won’t last forever the OECD amongst members of the G20 are getting sick of it. I think it is actually careless to boast about business like this with so many outside critics hungry for blood. More professional firms are being descreet.
