“Our network of lenders and funders is second to none and has been developed andnurtured over many years at the highest levels. This means we can provide a compelling proposition to the Jersey finance sector. We can help Trustees and other professional advisors not only to fulfil fiduciary duties to their clients, but to exceed expectations bybeing able to provide a wide range of financing alternatives.”

Cap Real Estate, a joint venture with Captima, and based in Central London, offers specialist advisory services for developers and investors in Alternative Residential real estate

Mr Watson added: “We understand what investors and lenders require so we can help our developer clients shape projects at an earlier stage in the planning process. Institutional investors have very specific requirements regarding amenities and unit sizes and so the design must meet the requirements of the investor.

“Captima is currently involved in the funding of roughly 40,000 units across the U.K. and we think we are uniquely positioned to present compelling investment opportunities to sophisticated real estate investors.”
