Royal Court issues final judgment in the case of Bordeaux Services (Guernsey) Limited & Ors v Guernsey Financial Services Commission

6th June 2016

On 11 May 2016 the Royal Court of Guernsey handed down its final judgment in the appeal brought by Bordeaux Services (Guernsey) Limited & Ors v Guernsey Financial Services Commission.  The Commission has considered this ruling carefully and believes that some key messages are contained within the judgment that are important both for Financial Services Business in the Bailiwick, and also for the Commission when bringing enforcement sanctions against licensees and individuals. The Commission is grateful to the Court for the guidance provided in this regard.  The Commission thought it helpful if not only the ruling was provided but also a summary of some of the findings made by the Deputy Bailiff.
