The Channel Islands are recognised as one of the world’s leading offshore financial centres and benefit from low tax rates. The beautiful landscape is a mix of winding roads, breath-taking coastline and contemporary living. Although it’s just a short flight from the British mainland the Islands typically offer a pleasanter climate. Sheltered by Britain and France it offers pleasant year-round temperatures.
