Asset
Management
Asset management
and trust transactions should be handled in complete confidence. Our
mission is to provide you with security and the necessary tax and legal
framework to structure your assets to your best advantage.
Conservative and at the same time innovative, our counsel is tailored to your
needs. Asset structuring involves the setting up of legal entities and the
transfer of assets of all kinds to those legal entities, with the aim of keeping
private and structured assets separate. The main advantages of this kind of
structuring are estate planning, asset protection, mobility/flexibility and
confidentiality.
