Services

Trusts

A trust is a flexible solution providing for the protection of assets in a wide range of circumstances. We can assist with the establishment of a full range of trusts including family trusts, discretionary trusts, interest in possession trusts, reserved powers trusts, charitable and non-charitable purpose trusts.

Our team can also provide the trusteeship, ongoing administration and full accounting services once established with corporate trustees.  We can also assist with the establishment of private trust companies and can provide protector services to non-administered trusts.

Foundations

We can help set up a foundation, a flexible vehicle that can be established for charitable or non-charitable purposes or both, and the ongoing provision of a qualified member and a guardian if required.

Company incorporation and officers

We provide incorporation, administration services, accounting and wealth monitoring to assist with investment strategies. We provide corporate governance through the provision of corporate directors (or individual appointments to a wider board of directors) and company secretarial services.

Private trust companies (PTC)

A private trust company can be an ideal solution for managing family business assets and for families that have multiple interests that they wish to segregate in separate family trusts. Our team can assist with the proposed PTC structuring, the establishment of the PTC and the ongoing administration.

Family office services

Our professional trustee, foundation and private trust company services are all available as a combined family office solution. In addition, we can help a family construct their own family governance document and assist with a range of non-fiduciary support services.  We can also help to formulate and deliver investment strategies using our vast network of third party investment management partners.

Real estate structures

Property is one of our areas of expertise, we manage a wide range of commercial and high value residential property holding structures.

Tax compliance and reporting

Tax compliance and reporting is an increasingly complex area which we can assist international families to navigate to ensure structures remain compliant. We do not provide tax advice but are able to put clients in touch with a network of tax advisers if required.

Philanthropy

We can establish and provide ongoing fiduciary and administration services to structures set up for charitable purposes.
