Wealth management firm Affinity has expanded its presence in the Middle East with the opening of a new office in the Dubai International Financial Centre (DIFC).
The company said it marks a “major step” in the its international growth, bringing the firm closer to its growing client base across the Middle East, while “strengthening its ability to deliver tailored, long-term structuring solutions in one of the world’s most dynamic financial centres”.
Affinity said the new office complements its established base in Jersey as both jurisdictions provide the “flexibility, regulation and credibility that international families require when planning across generations”.
Group Director Michelle Tring said: “The DIFC allows us to be present, available and more connected to many of the families and advisers we already work with.
“It’s a region full of energy and ambition, and we’re looking forward to contributing to its future.”
She added: “The firm sees the Dubai office as a natural next step in delivering seamless, cross-jurisdictional support that reflects the needs and values of the families it works with.”
The Affinity team is now based in the Gate Building in the DIFC.
