Haydn Taylor - MD, Ravenscroft Jersey

Low interest rates, fluctuating stock markets, Brexit and Trump – all valid reasons for thinking the best way to save for your future is to put it under the mattress. But an increasing number of Channel Islanders are turning to Ravenscroft, the Channel Islands only independent stockbroker and investment manager. Haydn Taylor, managing director of Ravenscroft Jersey, looks at the reasons why.

I have spent 30 years in the finance industry and now more than at any time, through the advent of the internet which allows people to research and understand previously complex subjects, investors are taking a real interest in the “hows” and “whys” of their investments rather than just focusing on the returns.

That, and increasing regulation, presents a challenge for stockbrokers and investment managers as they need to be able to explain, easily and plainly, the reasons for the decisions they are taking on behalf of their clients or the recommendations they are making. For Ravenscroft, we don’t see that as a challenge as it’s something we have been doing since the business was started.

As a Channel Islands-based business, our people are our biggest strength and that’s true from the top down. Leading the company is an impressive board which includes Jon Ravenscroft, who has over 30 years of experience in traditional stockbroking, Andrew Stewart, co-founder of Collins Stewart, and Stephen Lansdown, significant shareholder of Ravenscroft and cofounder of Hargreaves Lansdown, a current FTSE100 constituent.

Ravenscroft now has a team of more than 80 in the Channel Islands providing traditional execution and advisory stockbroking, segregated and pooled investment management, market making and corporate finance services. In the last 12 months, the Jersey team has grown considerably including the appointment of five highly regarded and experienced stockbrokers from Canaccord - Richard Mason, Ross Garrard, Justin Jouan, Anthony McGovern and Patrick McConnell. The team has also been joined by Garry Beardshall in the rolwe of treasury manager.

That growth, as well as a move to new offices at Weighbridge House, has been transformational, and the Jersey business is set to have its most successful year.

The reasons for this success are based around simplicity and transparency. We are invested alongside our clients, we all believe in the products and services we offer.

Your local Stockbrokers & Investment Manage

Our clients are people we know and see regularly, whether it’s in our office, the supermarket,

at the school gate or at social events. We pride ourselves on being accountable and on delivering investment solutions that outperform our competitors.

Our investment approach is focused on long-term themes which are driven by irrefutable

global trends; increasing wealth, changing demographics, ageing population and technological advancement. What that means in practise is that while we are mindful of what is happening politically, economically, regionally and globally, we necessarily don’t react to it immediately. We are focused on the long-term and on what we know rather than on short-term assumptions.

What also appeals to our Channel Islands investors is our local focus through the funds which we act as investment manager for. The Channel Islands Property Fund, Bailiwick Investments

have real potential. This offers those in the Channel Islands the opportunity to invest locally TPA5843-RAVENSCROFT JACKSONS ACCELERATOR 290X400 JUNE 2017.indd 1

and that has a real appeal. To be able to drive past the buildings they own a part of, or use and visit the businesses, gives people a tangible comfort and the ability to see their investment.

The growth of our Jersey business has also allowed us to invest more back into the community, with the company contributing a significant sum in sponsorship and financial support to charities, organisations and individuals. In Jersey, we have been a sponsor of horse racing for many years, provide financial support to aspiring triathlete Jack Kennedy and the Jersey Decorative and Fine Art Society (now known as The Arts Society Jersey), sponsored the Angel of the Year in the Pride of Jersey Awards and recently offered support to the Jersey Table Tennis Association. Ravenscroft also kindly provides ongoing support to the British Heart Foundation – Jersey Branch, of which I am currently chairman.

Ravenscroft Jersey is at a very exciting stage of its development and having now built an extremely strong team with diverse investment skills, we look forward to developing new relationships with clients in Jersey and further afield.

The New Mercedes-Benz E-class Coupe An E-Class matches its desirable style with undeniable substance through and through. The taut, toned muscle visible in its sheet metal becomes instantly tangible in the response of its power-train and chassis. The airy openness of the pillar-less E-Class Coupe is matched by no other car in it’s class-and exceeded only by the wide open Cabriolet.

And yet both models deliver their refreshing freedom with the reassuring security and solidity for which Mercedes-Benz engineering has long been revered. So it’s no surprise that the driver of an E-Class Coupe appears not just confident behind the wheel but content, even complete. The more you look one over, it’s clear nothings been overlooked.

More Size, More Style, More Space Bold new styling includes a dramatically reworked front section, complete with spor ts grille, one-piece headlamps and eye-catching air intakes.

DISCOVER NEW HORIZONS Hop in the new MINI Countryman and head out into Europe. Adventure is waiting and closer than you think.

Every road marks the beginning of a new chapter, full of moments you’ll cherish forever, in a story that you’ll never want to end. Just under 4.3 meters long, it is a versatile Sports Activity Vehicle with ample room for 5 people, luggage and all those memories you pick up on the way. It’s ideal for longer journeys, and with optional ALL4 all-wheel-drive and the ever-present go-kart feeling, even treks so far -flung destinations is a breeze.

ACCESS TO ALL AREAS Don’t get stuck in the gravel. Take on any terrain with the ALL4 all-wheel drive option, which also gives improved grip on urban roads if you fancy a blast. Jacked up suspension for higher ride height gives you a perfect view of the road and exceptional ground clearance. Whether you’re tackling the concrete jungle or the rocky off-road, the MINI Countryman takes it in its stride.

MORE SPACE You’re not short of options when it comes to loading up the new MINI Countryman: the load-compartment floor folds away, the rear backrests fold down in a 40/20/40 split and the sliding rear seat bench splits in a 40/60 arrangement. You also get handy features like the easy opener function (which allows you to open the electric tailgate with a kicking motion under the bumper) and a cushioned picnic bench stored beneath the loading shelf.

The New BMW R nineT Racer Style in the fast lane The design of the R nineT Racer unmistakably takes inspiration from the motorspor ts of the 70s. The elongated propor tions extend through the entire design and promise pure acceleration. The distinctive half-shell fairing, the tank and the seat shape the slim silhouette.

The long wheelbase and the low-slung handlebars positioned far to the front complete the low, spor ty seating position. Then the high-set, far back footrests: as a rider, you literally lie on the bike. Surrounded by the white bodywork, which clearly stands out against the dark driving par ts and technology.
