What signature taxation, laws, trusts or investments do
you think really work for UHNW clients and why? Clients
generally demand control over the assets that would benefit from
structuring, especially those business assets that they've
spent years building. One option is the use of an offshore limited
partnership to hold the asset with the patriarch acting in a GP
capacity and a trust owning the majority of the limited partnership
interests. The Guernsey trust law is of interest with regard to the
unlimited perpetuity period and the planned changes of Guernsey
limited partnership laws to also allow unlimited perpetuity periods
with this planning.
Are there any private clients in the world you would
really like to work with? Our Client base is made up in
the main by entrepreneurial business owners in Europe and the
Middle East. We are working with more clients also from Asia and
South America.
