Gerry Williams, CEO of Ardel. PLANS for growth are on the agenda at Ardel Holdings, according to chief executive Gerry Williams.

The business, which was renamed following the management buyout last year of Bachmann’s trust and fund businesses, held its official Guernsey launch party last week.

Mr Williams (pictured) said the party, which was attended by around 170 clients and business associates, was a good way of informing as many people as possible of the recent changes, which now sees 40% of the business owned by 30 of its managers.

‘Bachmann has been around for such a long time so we felt it was important to hold such an event.’
