Walkers has acted as Jersey counsel to Trinity House Investments and Lighthouse Canton on the launch of Trinity House UK Commercial Property Fund 1 IC. Trinity House Investments is a UK-focused commercial property fund, structured as a Jersey Private Fund that will provide a platform for Singaporean capital, while Lighthouse Canton is a wealth advisory firm, regulated by the Monetary Authority of Singapore, providing Trinity House Investments with financial advisory services.
Our appointment is another example of the growing interest of Asian investment managers in Jersey-fund vehicles for commercial real estate investment. It also highlights the rising global demand for the Jersey Private Fund product in general, which greatly reduces time to market and facilitates the deployment of capital.
Walkers, through its presence in Jersey, Guernsey, Hong Kong and Singapore and its global expertise in investment funds laws, is perfectly positioned to offer best-in-class legal services to the Asian investment fund market.
We are delighted to have aided Trinity House Investments and Lighthouse Canton in bringing the Trinity House UK Commercial Property Fund to market. We have seen that the speed and ease of the Jersey Private Fund has greatly facilitated Asian investment managers realise their strategic goals," commented Jonathan Heaney, Walkers (Jersey) Managing Partner.
