Corrigan, who was formerly director for Barclays Wealth in Jersey, will be responsible for the international offices of Jersey Finance in Abu Dhabi, India and Hong Kong.
His brief will also be to extend the profile of Jersey’s finance industry in the UK, Europe and Russia.
Geoff Cook, chief executive of Jersey Finance, said Corrigan had a wealth of experience both in Jersey and in international markets which will help to harness the “numerous business growth opportunities which lie in both our traditional and developing markets”.
Corrigan’s background includes working with a wide range of international clients across the corporate, institutional and private client sectors. He has also been a committee member of the Jersey Bankers Association and continues as a member of the Prince’s Trust Steering Group for Jersey.
Corrigan said: “With ever increasing mobility of international capital it is vital that Jersey seeks out fresh opportunities and new markets whilst continuing to invest in the strong relationships that have served us so well within the United Kingdom, particularly the City of London.”
