William (‘Bill’) Hughes, CBE, QPM, former senior law enforcement officer and Director General of the Serious Organised Crime Agency, will be the guest speaker at the ICSA Jersey Annual Gala Dinner in June 2013. His visit to Jersey (his first) is sponsored by Comsure.
The annual black tie dinner will be held at the Hotel de France on Friday, 21st June 2013, and is open to ICSA members, students, and non-members. ICSA members and guests from the UK, Isle of Man and Guernsey are also most welcome.
“We are delighted to announce that Bill Hughes will be joining us this year as our Guest Speaker and we are particularly looking forward to him sharing an entertaining insight into the job of tackling serious and organised crime. We are very grateful indeed to Comsure for making this possible,” said ICSA Jersey Branch Chairman, Tania Angell.
Mathew Beale, Managing Director, Comsure Compliance Limited, commented: “The ICSA Jersey Annual Dinner and Awards is a prestigious event in the Jersey business calendar and Comsure are proud to be involved this year. We are particularly honoured to be instrumental in bringing over the founding Director General of the Serious and Organised Crime Agency, Bill Hughes, as the guest speaker.
He added: “It is vital to the Island that we continue to attract such high calibre speakers who help us reflect on how we manage, assess and review our business practices in the Channel Islands. Bill’s knowledge on combating money laundering and financial crime globally will be particularly pertinent and aligns with our focus at Comsure and the services we provide to our clients in multiple jurisdictions.”
The ICSA Jersey Awards Presentation and Graduation Ceremony will take place during the Dinner in a new-format style event which has become the focal point of the ICSA Jersey calendar. The evening will conclude with musical entertainment and dancing to local group, Inside Job, until 1am.
