Fiona Le Poidevin, chief executive of Guernsey Finance, has been recognised on her work raising the profile of Guernsey.

The Citywealth Power Women Lunch 2014, which brought together 130 senior women in the wealth management sector, commended Le Poidevin for building the Guernsey brand, particularly in the private wealth management sector.

Le Poidevin said: "I am very pleased to win this award but most importantly it shows the way in which Guernsey is increasingly being recognised for its experience, expertise and innovation in providing private wealth management services to clients."
