Our team has extensive expertise and experience in the provision of trust and fiduciary services.

Trusts have long been the cornerstone of private wealth and family generational planning. While the core principles remain as important today as they have always been, we have seen extensive developments in trust legislation and utility, particularly in dealing with commercial interests and business succession as part of private wealth planning.

Our team are thought leaders and expert partners, with many years’ experience of excellent fiduciary service delivery.  We can provide professional or personal trustees to family and commercial trust arrangements, engage as part of a structure’s oversight and management team, and offer a range of wealth and transition planning support and administration services. We can incorporate and manage private trust companies, host managed trust arrangements, and support family office and governance arrangements.   We are delighted to consider what you want and how best we can meet your needs and goals.

The provision of professional directors, secretaries, bookkeepers and much more…

“Governance is the system of rules, practices and processes by which a firm is directed and controlled. This will involve balancing the interests of stakeholders…. This is the framework for attaining objectives and must encompass practically every sphere of management.” From Investopedia

While this helps, if the slightly abbreviated description was drafted with corporate governance in mind, it embraces the broader principles of family and transactional governance just as well.

We can provide professional and independent directors, officers, oversight and support staff, but importantly we can also help you construct and imbed a robust governance structure and framework, embodying best practice, designed around your objectives and goals.

Good governance will enhance an entity’s credibility which will favourably affect its financial and broader performance, whereas weak governance will have the opposite result.

Regulatory compliance has evolved significantly over the last 10 years and is the responsibility of all stakeholders…

Historically, regulatory compliance in BVI was focussed on the service provider and professional client.  This typically involved the need to properly run your company, gate-keep to a defined standard, and to analyse risk and review activities in a structured fashion.  Regulatory compliance has expanded hugely, to now include more thorough and structured gatekeeping and review processes, economic substance and tax residence considerations, Common Reporting Standards and FATCA, beneficial ownership reporting, and a host of other domestic and supra-national requirements, which involve the client and advisors as much as the BVI service provider. 

The enforcement capacities and penalties for non-compliance have grown with reporting needs and an error or oversight can have very costly and lasting consequences.  We expect that stakeholders’ global regulatory obligations will continue to grow, in both scope and complexity, as will the penalties and sanctions for failing to meet those obligations effectively.  Our expert partnership with you and your advisors is invaluable in helping you fully comply with not only today’s, but tomorrow’s regulatory requirements.
