| Challenging times on the high street - Channel Islands commercial property in 2012 |
Thursday 26 April |
|
Queen of Shops Mary Portas says Britain's high streets have reached a crisis point. After her independent review at the request of the Prime Minister, she said: "Unless urgent action is taken much of Britain will lose, irretrievably, something that is fundamental to our society, and which has real social and economic worth to our communities." The reasons for the decline are numerous, but the economic downturn has no doubt exacerbated issues and Jersey's high streets are not immune. In this seminar we will review and discuss the state of commercial property in the Channel Islands, focusing on the current market for both office and retail sectors, suggesting ways to rejuvenate our high streets and options for landlords and tenants. SPEAKERS: Paul Harben - Collas
Crill property partner WHO SHOULD ATTEND: This seminar should be of particular interest to trust companies, commercial landlords and tenants, commercial property managers, and lenders. However, anyone with an interest in the health of our high streets and commercial property in the Channel Islands generally will enjoy the presentations and discussion. DATE: Thursday 26 April 2012 LOCATION: Royal Yacht Hotel TIME: Registration and sandwiches from 12 noon. Speakers start sharp at 12.30. Seminar closes by 2pm. |
| Are you being served? Freezing injunctions, search orders and fraud investigation notices |
Wednesday 16 May |
|
In these financially straitened times, creditors are becoming more inventive and aggressive in the protection, recovery or replacement of their assets. As the financial crisis leads to the uncovering of fraudulent activity, the use of investigatory and pre-judgment measures, such as search, freezing and fraud investigation orders, is increasingly prevalent. The effect on financial services businesses can be significant as they are forced to walk a tightrope between the order's often draconian requirements and their own obligations to their client. This seminar will look at the investigatory and pre-judgment toolkit and consider from a financial services perspective what steps a business should take when they are the subject of, or affected by, an order. SPEAKERS: Jane Colston
- partner at Stewarts Law WHO SHOULD ATTEND: Mainly professionals from financial institutions but accountants, trust companies and fund administrators will all find this of interest. COST: £25 per delegate DATE: Wednesday 16 May 2012 LOCATION: Royal Yacht Hotel TIME: Registration and sandwiches from 12 noon. Speakers start sharp at 12.30. Seminar closes by 2pm. |
