Cayman Islands Professional Trustee Service

For a Cayman Islands client, a professional trustee takes legal responsibility for administering trust assets in accordance with the trust deed, applicable law and the interests of the beneficiaries.

Cayman Islands has an established trust and fiduciary-services sector, making it a practical jurisdiction to consider where the structure and family circumstances are suitable.

Who this service is for

This service is for individuals and families considering or already using a Cayman Islands wealth structure and wanting the professional trustee service handled professionally.

We start by understanding the family, the assets involved and what the structure is intended to achieve before any provider is approached.

What we check before we start

We review the proposed role of the Cayman Islands structure, the people involved, the assets and the information a fiduciary provider is likely to require.

For a Cayman Islands client, source of wealth, source of funds, tax residence and beneficial ownership need to be transparent. Where legal or tax advice is required, it is obtained from appropriately qualified advisers.

What we will do

Coutts Consultants identifies and coordinates suitable Cayman Islands fiduciary or professional providers for the professional trustee service and manages the information and document flow.

For a Cayman Islands client, the appointed trustee, administrator or other regulated provider remains responsible for accepting the relationship and carrying out any regulated fiduciary function.
