In episode 6 of our On the sofa podcast, Christian Hay, Collas Crill's head of
dispute resolution in Guernsey, discusses crypto-assets in private
wealth structures with Matt Gilligan, Associate Director at Saffery
Champness in Guernsey, and Chris Recker, Associate at Duane Morris
in London.

wealthiest individuals and, despite the jury being out in some
jurisdictions on their tax and legal status, holding these assets
