Family PIF in Guernsey

A new limited investment licence introduced by the Guernsey Financial Services Commission (GFSC) is enhancing Guernsey’s appeal for Private Investment Funds, particularly for family offices and fiduciary firms managing Family PIFs.

The regime significantly reduces cost and regulatory burden, with approval possible within 24 hours. It allows fiduciary firms to administer Family PIFs without requiring a full investment licence, while enabling family offices to take a more active role in investment decisions without changing their existing fiduciary provider.

Liberum supports fiduciaries and family offices with a comprehensive, integrated service offering. Our platform brings together global custody, stockbroking, payments, and treasury services within a single account, helping to reduce administrative complexity and improve operational efficiency.

We offer fast account opening, multi-currency capabilities, streamlined cash management, and direct access to global markets, alongside support for a broad range of asset classes. Our onboarding and in-house processes are designed to combine speed with robust regulatory oversight.
