Client Bulletin

I wanted to update and reassure you that in this time of global crisis, The Blacktower Financial Management Group of Companies and our Nexus Global Network are still very much on hand to assist. We have robust Business Continuity Plans that were rolled out early last week, implementing a robust staffing plan with employees working from home, in conjunction with a limited number of staff being in our offices where appropriate. In line with government advice, client visits to our offices are no longer taking place, so we ask you to use our online services or our telephone service. In a people-focused business these measures have not been imposed lightly, however protecting both your and our own welfare must come first.
 
As I’m sure you’re aware, the knock on effects to financial markets have been severe. We want to make sure we are able to support our clients in any way we can to help manage your financial arrangements and ensure as far as is possible the smooth functioning of all transactions.
 
In line with Governmental travel advice, we have implemented strict policies around travel to and from affected areas, as well as enforcing self-isolation guidance. All of our global offices are adhering to local requirements in their region, whilst also supporting the global network of our Group.
 
Our priority is to continue to deliver our services without interruption and so do not expect any impact to the high level quality of service you are used to receiving from us.
 
Should you have any queries please do not hesitate to contact your usual Financial Adviser in the first instance.

I would like to thank you all for your continued support and understanding during this difficult period for everyone.

 

Your Sincerely  

 

John Westwood

Taking a preventative approach to common expat stress factors

Man sitting in windowMoving overseas is exciting. The idea of making a fresh start in an exotic location is generally a cause for optimism and joyfulness, and for many becoming an expat will bring a positive outlook for the future.

But expatriates have a lot to consider before saying goodbye to their home countries: sorting out a new home, finding a school for any children who will be moving as well, and figuring out what’s best for future finances (an international financial adviser can help you with this) are all sure to be top priorities.

New Governor Brings Confidence to Financial Management Industry

Cayman Island FlagThe Cayman Islands has a new governor following the announcement that Martyn Roper OBE, a career diplomat and corporate leadership veteran, has been appointed to the role. He takes over from Anwar Choudhury, who had recently faced a number of complaints regarding his conduct.

The move is largely thought to be positive step for financial management services in the Cayman Islands, as Roper has said he will make it a priority of his role to “listen and learn” from those around him.

Mr. Roper brings a wealth of experience to the job. He was most recently minister and deputy head of mission for the U.K. in Beijing, China, but has worked in other notable capacities, including as the UK Ambassador to Algeria, Deputy Head of Mission in Brasilia and, of particular interest to the financial management industry in the Cayman Islands, as First Secretary for Economics and Development with the Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) in Paris.
