MANAGED TRUST COMPANIES

Some clients prefer to have their offshore structures run by a trust company, which is ultimately owned by their advisor rather than a third party trustee. 

Hawksford International has the specialist knowledge, experience and expertise to support professional advisors in setting up and administering their own managed trust companies for their clients’ offshore requirements. 

We have a strong understanding of the necessary corporate governance and a  pragmatic and practical approach to the day to day issues involved in running managed trust companies for advisors.

Our services include:

  • advising on the benefits and implications of establishing a managed trust company
  • advising on and negotiating the requirements of local regulation
  • leveraging our experience and expertise in compliance to help advisors obtain and retain independent trust licences
  • working in partnership with professional advisors on the formation, structure and ongoing administration of entities for clients in the managed trust company
  • providing the directors and officers to the managed trust company.

Hawksford International presently administers a significant number of managed trust companies for well known firms of lawyers, accountants and investment advisors.
