“Lydian International chose Jersey as a base due to its straight forward regulatory regime and no-nonsense approach to business support. The island sits squarely between the time zone of our market in Toronto and that of our operating region in eastern Europe. Since settling on the island we have become familiar with the many other business-friendly benefits that Jersey offers – regular direct flight connections into London (arriving in The City faster than many mainland commuters) and can readily access our European-based investors with direct flights to Zurich, Geneva and Paris. Jersey’s diverse population and status as a well-regarded international financial centre means experienced and often multilingual support staff and financial professionals are readily available. Jersey is a safe and healthy environment for head office staff and their families and there are few of the stressful side-effects to head office work in large cities which aids morale and increases productivity.”

Locate Jersey have been instrumental in the growth of a community of international exploration and mining operatives located within Jersey. Who better to describe the experience of relocating their business to Jersey than those who have already made the move? “Our move to Jersey has been very rewarding on both a professional and personal basis. To operate

a resource business we consider that Jersey satisfies all our requirements. We are able to run the business professionally and efficiently and to the benefit of our stakeholders (being public company shareholders), the government where our project is domiciled, and our employees. There is great depth to legal, accounting and various other required support services in Jersey and we consider this move as one for the long term.”

CENTAMIN PLC

“Consolidated Minerals established its head office in Jersey in September 2010. The process to register and licence the business in Jersey was very straightforward and Locate Jersey provided excellent support during this process. The key reasons for choosing Jersey included the level of professional (legal and accounting) support on the Island, access to local, qualified staff and the closeness to international markets. In addition the quality of the living conditions and beautiful environment made Jersey a welcome location for those employees who have relocated.”

“Randgold Resources Limited is an African focused gold mining and exploration company with listings on the London Stock Exchange and New York’s NASDAQ. Randgold Resources has operated very successfully from the island since its incorporation in Jersey in 1995. During that time, the company has grown to be one of the 100 largest companies listed on the London Stock Exchange. Jersey’s established financial industry with direct access to international banking and capital markets, together with advanced communications, highly regarded judicial system, and an open and progressive attitude towards business development, make Jersey an excellent location for Randgold Resources corporate office. Jersey’s close proximity to European cities, offering good connections to our sites in Africa, is also proving to be invaluable.”

The move has been extremely successful in fulfilling our objectives.”
