Thorndon is an independent consulting firm based in Guernsey specialising in professional and governance risk in the finance industry.

Under our Board Process Support and Director’s Indemnity services we advise and support directors and boards in the understanding, mitigation, and financing of their collective and individual risks, and with the management of adverse events when they occur.  Thorndon aligns itself with the interests of directors specifically and solely.  We do not act as insurance brokers, nor will we advise or represent brokers, insurers, or companies, or any other stakeholders in the governance risk and insurance process other than the directors we work with in relation to governance risk.

We also provide professional indemnity advice and support to finance industry service providers.
