Jersey Finance, the body that promotes the jurisdiction as a robust, transparent, international finance center (IFC), recently hosted the 2019 Women and Wealth Management Events Series in Jeddah, the sixth of its kind. Following on from the success of last year’s inaugural event, the 2019 edition received an overwhelming response from women in Saudi Arabia who are increasingly taking control of financial affairs. Held in collaboration with the British Consulate in Jeddah, the event hosted more than 60 guests, and high-level speakers from the wealth management industry.

In line with Vision 2030, Saudi Arabia continues to press on efforts to diversify its economy at pace, with women playing a growing role in driving this change.
