The multi-family office firm has made a number of senior appointments to its Channel Islands operations in recent years.

Stonehage Fleming has appointed Natasha Newell as director of the group’s family office team in Guernsey. She will report to Iris Harvey, head of family office in Guernsey.

Newell, who has extensive experience of offshore trusts, has worked as a senior lawyer for some of the world’s most prominent offshore law firms, most recently for Carey Olsen.

She began her career as a competition lawyer in Brussels and subsequently qualified as an English barrister.

For more than a decade, Newell practised at a leading commercial set of barristers’ Chambers in London, then moved to Guernsey in 2014 and later qualified as a Guernsey Advocate. Her professional memberships include STEP, ACTAPS and the Chancery Bar Association. 

Newell has been appointed to the board of Stonehage Fleming (Guernsey) Limited as well as the boards of its corporate trustees and corporate directors.  She will work with the Stonehage Fleming Family Office accounting, banking and investment teams. 

In March, Sarah Bartram-Lora Reina was appointed as a trustee director in the Jersey family office division. Claire Strecker also joined Stonehage Fleming’s Jersey Family Office team as a director in risk and compliance. Stonehage Fleming has been bolstering its Channel Islands' teams.
