The NextGen list supersedes the publication’s ‘Top 35 Under 35’ initiative, originally launched in 2018. It seeks to celebrate the rising stars of the private client profession across the Channel Islands, spanning tax, trust, law and accountancy.
Two individuals from JTC’s Private Client Services team in Jersey have been named: Manager Paul Russell has been included in the list again, while Assistant Manager Shannon Renouf is included for the first time this year.
