How we are funded

The JRA is funded by Jersey's banking industry.

Article 16 of the Resolution Law allows the JRA to raise an annual administration levy to enable the JRA to meet its funding needs.

The JRA is required to determine how much the levy is both in aggregate and for each Jersey Bank and communicate this by Notice.

Article 16 also provides for additional levies to be raised, should circumstances dictate that they are necessary.

It is intended that the annual administrative levy will be declared in the first quarter of each year. 


2026 Funding

2026 will see the JRA take on additional functions relating to the Jersey Bank Depositors Compensation Scheme (JDCS) from the Jersey Bank Depositors Compensation Board (JDCS Board). This will significantly increase our expected annual recurring costs. However, when compared to the combined costs of the JRA and the JDCS board in 2025, our 2026 budgeted costs are lower.

On 16 December 2025 we issued a Funding Paper in respect of our planned annual levy for 2026. The Funding Paper is available here: 2026 Funding Paper

Comments are invited from interested parties by 31 January 2026. Comments can be sent to Martin Edwards, Head of the JRA at: m.edwards@jra.org.je or anonymously via Timothy Hart at Jersey Finance: timothy.hart@jerseyfinance.com

We will consider any feedback received and, if necessary, publish a Feedback Paper in the first quarter of 2026.
