Succession solution and asset structure
Generating and preserving wealth
With private-benefit family foundations, corporate holding foundations and charitable foundations, the Principality of Liechtenstein offers a wide range of options. As a licensed trust company, we offer customised structures and professional management for your assets.
Due to its corporate and tax law framework, Liechtenstein offers attractive solutions for sustainable asset protection by means of private-benefit family foundations, corporate holding foundations as well as non-profit and charitable foundations (philanthropy).
Liechtenstein also recognises the trust, the trust company (trust reg.), the public limited company (LTD/PLC), the limited liability company (LLC) and the private-benefit establishment.
As a licensed trust company, we analyse your needs, present structuring options with domestic and foreign legal entities, clarify civil and tax law issues and finally set up the preferred asset structure. Accurate and professional management of the asset structure is our maxim.
