Channel Islands law firm Carey Olsen has advised Investment Services UK, the London-based fixed income firm focused on emerging markets, on the establishment of Amrah Global Opportunities Fund.

The aim of the Jersey-based open ended fund is to provide enhanced returns through access to a portfolio of fixed income securities principally in the emerging markets.

Investment Services UK, which already has six years experience of Jersey as a funds domicile, is regulated in the UK by the FSA and operates as a specialised fixed income house focusing on emerging market opportunities.

Eve Kosofsky led the Carey Olsen team. The process of establishing the fund structure in Jersey was managed jointly by Daniel O’Connor (pictured) of Carey Olsen and Daniel McKeon of Sanne Trust Company, the fund’s appointed administrator and registrar. 

O'Connor says: "We are delighted to have been part of the team involved in establishing the Amrah fund in Jersey which comes at a time of an increasing number of investment opportunities in emerging markets."
