As a politically stable and tax neutral jurisdiction with over 40 years accumulated experience as an international finance centre, Guernsey has gained a strong reputation as a prime location in which to establish investment structures of all descriptions including a large number of property funds and property holding vehicles.

GPUTs are used for a variety of property acquisitions, including as joint venture vehicles and as regulated funds.
