HURIYA BREAKS DOWN BARRIERS FOR CLIENTS

John Hanafin, Founder & CEO at Huriya Private, talks to WealthBriefing on why this firm has been such a success.

Where in the world do you operate – are you mainly a domestic player or international?

We have strategically located offices internationally, with our head office being in Dubai, UAE. The other office locations of Huriya Private include Qatar, Switzerland, Albania, and Cyprus. Each of our offices are run by industry experts who have local knowledge and a strong professional network within their jurisdiction.

However, Huriya Private’s services are not limited only to the locations of our offices. We assist clients internationally, whether this be helping them to setup an offshore company in the Cayman Islands or the Isle of Man or assisting them with obtaining citizenship in Europe or the Caribbean. Our services are offered to multi-national clients and are provided globally.

We feel that it is imperative to be able to assist clients internationally to be able to provide them with the best solution that meets their requirements. Limiting a client to one jurisdiction would defeat the purpose of what Huriya Private stands for, and what we strive to achieve. We aim to break down barriers and limit restrictions by allowing our clients the freedom to travel visa free and to expatriate their wealth in the most commercial, cost-effective way.

How do awards such as this make a difference to your firm and colleagues?

The WealthBriefing network provides us with access to current and exclusive industry research on the global wealth management sector. It also provides us with the opportunity to interact with like- minded individuals, make contacts and expand our professional network. The Awards are a bonus of being part of this community. They offer tangible recognition to the leaders in our industry.

For Huriya Private, it is an honour to be issued with this award. It provides us with exposure and enables us to promote our achievements to our staff, clients and peers. We feel grateful to be a part of this community and to gain recognition for the success and accomplishments that Huriya Private has had to date. We hope to continue growing as a key player in our industry and to remain a reputable member of the WealthBriefing network.

What does success look like to you – can this be measured in hard numbers or qualitative ways, or both?

The simple answer is both. Of course, we have internal financial targets, but to achieve these we need to also meet our qualitive objectives. For Huriya Private it is equally important that we have fulfilled staff, satisfied clients and that we are able to give back to the community.

Huriya Private Foundation plays a big part in what we do. It is a non-profit organisation that was setup as part of our CSR initiatives. Huriya Private Foundation aims to make a difference to the lives of children and communities within the Middle East and Asia by relieving poverty, advancing education, and assisting with the advancement of the arts, culture, heritage and science.

Can you sum up the philosophy of your firm?

Essentially, it all boils down to putting people first. Putting our clients first by ensuring that they are provided with the highest level of service and offering them tailor made solutions that meet their requirements and expectations.

Ensuring that our staff are fulfilled and that they have the relevant training and support to ensure that they can carry out their roles to the best of their abilities. And finally, giving back to communities and individuals in need via charitable initiatives. John Hanafin
