Jersey

Guernsey

Isle of Man

KPMG has been a significant presence in Jersey since 1973, marking over 50 years of operation. The firm has played a vital role in the island's local community, offering professional services across sectors like financial services, real estate, technology, and more.

The Guernsey firm dates back to the 1890s, with Black, Geoghegan & Till's presence established in the 19th Century. Harry Broughton became the first permanent local representative in the mid-1920s and was the only practising accountant during Guernsey's WWII occupation. Post-1945 Liberation, the firm remained a leading presence. In 1972, it associated with Peat Marwick Mitchell & Co., and by 1987, it became KPMG's Channel Islands member firm.

KPMG opened its Isle of Man office in 1978, growing steadily until the first resident partner was appointed in 1981. After merging with J G Fargher & Co in 1986, it became a leading audit and accounting firm. In 2002, it joined The Offshore Group, and in 2008, it incorporated KPMG Limited in Gibraltar. Today, KPMG in the Isle of Man provides audit, tax, and advisory services to a wide range of clients.
