Hassans is pleased to announce that it has successfully advised Trident Fund Services (Malta) Limited ("Trident Trust") on its application for consent to act as an External Fund Administrator in Gibraltar under the Financial Services (Experienced Investor Funds) Regulations 2020.

The application process reflected a productive and collaborative approach with ongoing engagement with the Gibraltar Financial Services Commission throughout and with valuable support from the Minister for Financial Services and the GFIA, as the industry's representative body. Throughout the process, Trident Trust demonstrated its commitment to meeting the highest regulatory standards and to contributing positively to Gibraltar's financial services landscape.

Trident Trust is one of the world's leading independent corporate, fiduciary and fund administration groups with a well-established global presence and a strong track record of delivering institutional-quality services across multiple jurisdictions. The addition of a high-quality operator such as Trident Trust brings meaningful benefits to Gibraltar's financial services industry. 

Their presence broadens the depth and capability of the jurisdiction's fund administration sector, attracts new international fund business, and strengthens Gibraltar's reputation as a leading and credible funds jurisdiction.

“We are delighted to welcome Trident to Gibraltar’s funds industry, where we have no doubt they will make a significant contribution to the jurisdiction’s continued growth and success as a leading centre for crypto funds.”

James Lasry and Jerome Compson advised on this matter, with assistance from Daniel Feetham KC.
