Background

About Bill Harries

Background I am a trust professional with over 17 years industry experience with RBC Wealth Management and have a strong track record in managing multi-jurisdictional onshore and offshore trust and company structures. My experience is extensive, and covers the provision of financial and estate planning services to high net worth clients on a global basis. Having moved to Jersey in 1991 and spending 5 years in the local insurance industry, I took the opportunity to move into Global Wealth Management with Ermitage Trustees Limited, servicing clients predominantly in Africa. This experience increased when I joined RBC Wealth Management in 2001, which led to increasing my portfolio of clients in the region and culminated in frequent trips to Southern Africa. During my time at RBC I have gained valuable experience in an array of disciplines from people, financial management and business development. Integral to those positions was an ability to deal with complex issues ranging from clients specific structures to people challenges within the workplace. Prior to my move to Jersey I was a reinsurance broker working in Lloyds of London and the associated company insurance market, employed by C E Heath plc and prior to that by S W Taylor.
