BNP Paribas Wealth Management will continue working with Zedra as a preferred partner for trust services, while continuing to provide wealth management services to its clients.

Steven Bowen, head of Channel Islands at Zedra, said: “This acquisition will give us a significant opportunity to broaden Zedra’s capabilities and expertise in the Channel Islands, adding to our fast-growing market position.

“BNP Paribas Jersey Trust Corporation Limited has a first-class staff base, which we look forward to welcoming into Zedra.”
