Our Story

The Garfield Bennett Group has evolved since its creation in 1995 as Garfield Bennett English Solicitors. In 2004, Garfield-Bennett Trust Company Limited was established to take over the administration of the trust and company services.

Over the years the Group has become one of the most reputable and trusted providers within the finance sector, evidenced through a multi-national and diverse client base.

With significant experience in establishing and managing various structures, our clients range from corporate, High Net Worth individuals, families, and institutional clients.

As an independent and privately owned trust company, our mission remains in providing quality and bespoke services tailored to the needs of our clients.

Our culture, our heritage, our language are the foundations upon which we build our identity. Culture is everything.

PERFORMANCE CULTURE

The heart of our high-performing business is our people and our performance culture. This is what sets us apart from the rest. It’s the very thing that makes us unique and special. It cements and drives our standards of behaviours, it’s our competitive edge!

Building our performance culture didn’t happen overnight, it took commitment, hard work and most importantly, it involves every team member. It’s what allows us to be relevant, agile, and resilient as a team and business. It’s how we live out our mission every day with passion, purpose, and pride.

What's it made up of?

  • Commitment in providing an excellent client experience
  • Having continued passion about what we do
  • Being responsive to change and the needs of our clients
  • Creating trust, loyalty and security for our clients

Our Values

Values play an integral part within Garfield Bennett; they sculpt our way of being and define our culture

We designed our core values to be the filters in making sound and quality decisions for our clients and business partners. They are the moral compass in driving our winning behaviours.

Be Excellent

We set high standards of excellence in what we do and how we do it. We’re creative and innovative and strive to find better and new ways of doing things for our clients, the business and ourselves.

“If you aim for perfection… then you might just catch excellence along the way!”

Be Ambitious

We are ambitious and passionate about what we do, the difference we can make and the value we can add by looking at alternative solutions we can provide to our clients. We set the bar high, to keep score on progress.

“Achievements in life will be the direct proportion to your levels of ambition”

Be Agile

We are future focused; we welcome, seek and embrace change and understand that if we’re not changing and growing, we’re going backwards and will become irrelevant.

“Speed, agility and responsiveness are the keys to future success!”

Be Trusted & Loyal

We are mindful of cultural, cognitive diversities, other perspectives, and points of view. We don’t judge. Nobody cares how much you know, until they know how much you care.

“When trust is gained, loyalty is returned”

Our Approach

Being owner-managed gives us the advantage of independence in allowing for a flexible and receptive attitude. Taking a strategic approach is essential for our clients when deciding upon suitable and secure structures in which to place their valued assets.

At Garfield Bennett we work closely with our clients and their advisors, across several jurisdictions to implement a range of structures tailored to their specific requirements. Having no institutional links in Jersey, we’re able to offer access to a network of banking, investment, and other professional advisors.

Jersey has been a leading international finance centre for more than 50 years. Its forward-thinking approach and diversity are well placed at the forefront of wealth management in operating within the FATCA and CRS regimes for tax compliance and regulations.

A sovereign territory of the British Crown, situated outside the UK and the EU, Jersey uses its independence to provide a professional business environment that enables global commerce.
