We specialise in the incorporation and administration of a variety of offshore companies to hold assets or participate in transactions.

Benefits of holding assets or conducting business through an offshore company include:

• Limited liability (the owner's own assets are not exposed to the actions of the company)
• Increased confidentiality (no public disclosure of ownership or directors)
• Assets owned by a company can be easily transferred by changing the ownership of the company's shares
• Avoidance of probate procedures (the formal and public disposal of assets upon death can be unwelcome and costly)
• Separation of the ownership and control of different categories of assets (e.g. segregate risk-bearing assets, such as a business, from real estate or cash)
• Central ownership and management of assets in a variety of jurisdictions
• Tax planning
   

We can provide:
A full incorporation service for Cayman companies and those of other juridictions

• Clearance of multiple choices of proposed names
• Preparation & submission of incorporation documents and annual returns to the Registrar of Companies
• Provision of Registered Office (including "registered-office only" service, where the client provides directors and officers)
• Maintenance of share register, minute book and other statutory records
• Nominee shareholders (to ensure shares are not registered in the beneficial owner's name)
• Company directors and company secretary (either senior bank officers or corporations to act as the company's officers)
• Complete offshore "mind and management", including regular offshore meetings to make important decisions
• Mailing address and telephone/telecopier facilities
