BBC – An anti-money laundering “centre of excellence” could be set up in Alderney next year, if plans come to fruition.
Neil Harvey, a member of the Policy and Finance Committee, said accountant PwC was carrying out a feasibility study at its own expense.
He told States members the office would have a similar set up to the Alderney Gambling Control Commission.
Mr Harvey said it could create new jobs in the island but warned there were “many technical and legal issues “.
The new office would provide compliance services for financial institutions and other firms dealing with wealthy clients, such as estate agents.
The plan should see a pilot office open during 2014.
