Jersey's company registry has launched a new webpage to help sole traders and small business owners.

The registry, which is run by the Jersey Financial Services Commission (JFSC), said the new section of its site would help business owners navigate setting up and running a company.

It added that the page offers "clear guidance and practical resources" as well as help understanding the different types of company available. JFSC said it would expand the section in the future with more information, including simplified guidance on business names.
