Asset protection, investment and overseas structures
What we do:
Often an overseas structure will just be one part of the affairs of the international client or family and our experience enables us to look at and advise on the whole picture. We have particular experience in advising individuals and their families from the Middle East, the Far East, the US, Israel, Canada, and Western Europe.
We can help you with:
- The formation of trusts, foundations, companies and other overseas structures to hold and preserve wealth, and we work with local advisers and service providers in all the main international finance centres.
- Reviews of existing structures and advice on ways in which they can be improved or modified for changing circumstances.
- Moving a structure form one service provider to another.
- Advice on a family office, the pros and cons, and setting one up.
- Advice on working out a framework of rules for a family in relation to their structures and for managing transitions from one generation to another.
- Advice on the roles of trustee and protector and what to do if problems arise.
- Advice on UK taxation and regulation for trusts, settlors, beneficiaries, companies.
- Advice on complex or unusual assets e.g. art, digital assets.
