Spotlight On … Clifford Knezovich – IFA

Professionals working in financial management in the Cayman Islands have many regional and jurisdictional advantages that they can bring to the benefits of their clients’ portfolios, whether they are standard retail investors who have built their wealth through pension schemes, diligent individual savers or institutional investors who are looking for a desirable place to do business.

These are all undoubtedly factors in why, according to the Cayman Islands General Registry, the number of Grand Cayman-registered companies recently reached an all-time peak, with steady growth in Grand Cayman investment on the part of expats just one of many causes behind the growth which also saw Cayman GDP rise by 2.8 percent in 2017, with a further 3 percent rise predicted for 2018 figures.

What is the most important aspect of your work, in relation to clients, or the part of your day-to-day role which gives you the most satisfaction?

I don’t have direct contact with clients unless they visit head office, and that’s become far less frequent over the last 18 months – I suppose the head office team are my clients and it’s my job to support them. As office receptionist my role has changed a lot since more of the day to day business interactions are taking place online and not face to face. But I keep busy by helping everyone in the office in whatever way I can, even if that’s just keeping them supplied with coffee! I get real satisfaction from being part of a team and knowing that I can help to ease someone else’s workload and make their day a little bit better.
