Moore Stephens senior partner Clive Barton said that the firm was bucking the trend of the recession by recruiting more staff. The business is expecting growth during 2010 prompted by marketing trips made to a variety of nations last year by partners of the firm.
Mr Barton said: ‘I believe that there is a great deal for Jersey in general and the finance industry in particular to be optimistic about. It is for this reason that we at Moore Stephens look forward to 2010 with excitement.’
Moore Stephens partners made extensive marketing visits to India, Russia, the Middle East, Greece and Europe during 2009 to promote the firm in Jersey. Mr Barton said that much of this new business was expected to come onto the books during 2010.
