According to a CIFSA director and a partner at Deloitte, Jeremy Smith, “the recent success of CIFSA’s increased membership shows that it is not only the mission of CIFSA, but that of the entire industry, to continue to communicate the integrity and strength of the financial services industry in the Cayman Islands”.
