Fund Industry Award for Hassans

Hassans International Law Firm has been named “Best Gibraltar Law Firm” at the Fund Domicile Awards that took place at the Chesterfield Hotel in London on the 14th January 2010. This award is recognition of the prominence the firm plays in the fund industry in Gibraltar. The event, hosted by FundDomicile.com was well attended and followed a full days’ conference on the issues pertinent to the offshore fund industry. 

The winners were selected as a result of a two stage procedure. Award winners were selected as a result of votes received as well as being based on the views of a panel of judges. A total of 223 votes were cast for 115 service providers in 14 domiciles.

Members of the judging panel were: Grant Fuller, Managing Director, Axicorda; Christi Gujral, Chief Operating Officer, Zan Partners; Dallas McGillvray, Managing Director, FM Consult Ltd; Paul O'Donnell, Managing Director, The Canonbury Group and Simon Osborn, Editor, International Fund Investment.

The panel was chosen as a result of their independence, knowledge of fund service provision and the many years of experience that they all have had dealing with organisations in the fund domiciles.

James Lasry (pictured right, receiving the award), partner and Head of Funds at Hassans said “I am delighted Hassans has been recognised as Gibraltar's best law firm for funds. Our Funds Team has worked very hard over the years to develop Gibraltar as a jurisdiction of choice."
