KPMG announces Channel Islands and Isle of Man merger

Friday 15 January 2021


The separate firms of KPMG in the Channel Islands and the Isle of Man are merging into a single practice.

It will operate as a single professional services business for the Crown Dependencies, with 430 staff in total across the islands.

The practice joins the International Financial Centres and Overseas Territories as a core part of the KPMG Islands Group.

Guernsey-based Neale Jehan has been appointed as the inaugural Senior Partner of the new Crown Dependencies business.

“As leading firms in each of our islands it made sense to align ourselves so that we can leverage a larger pool of staff and specialists to meet our clients’ expectations," he said. 

“The new practice is wholly owned by its local partners who will continue to make decisions quickly that are right for our jurisdictions.”

The merger was a three month-undertaking and has come into effect.
