Trusteeship & Corporate Services

Is the protection and preservation of your wealth for present and future generations a primary aim?
Do you need an experienced, professional team to manage a compliant trust structure?

Overview

For families with substantial wealth, trusts and corporate structures act as a focal point that provides clarity and guidance on how your assets are managed and passed between generations.

Bentley Trust is a wholly owned subsidiary of the Bentley Reid Group with an independent board and management team. From our authorised and regulated trust companies in Malta and Hong Kong, we create and administer bespoke structures in an efficient, compliant way. We are experienced in trust, foundation and company formation and administer trusts that are written under a variety of proper laws, spanning multiple jurisdictions.

Our dedicated team of trust professionals has decades of experience and a deep understanding of how to manage intricate financial structures that cater to a variety of family needs and wishes. Given our independent status, we do not suffer from the short-term profit pressure, excessive bureaucracy and high staff turnover that often plague larger trust companies or those owned by external shareholders.

The security of your assets is paramount. Client monies are always held in segregated accounts with major global custodians. This means your assets are not exposed to the creditworthiness of Bentley Trust or the wider Bentley Reid Group. In all jurisdictions of operation, our entities are fully authorised and regulated by the relevant local authorities.

At Bentley Trust, we pride ourselves on regular and clear communication. We will work closely with your chosen professional advisers to establish entities that complement your long-term wealth planning strategy. We produce regular, detailed financial reports and your dedicated Bentley Trust Executive and their team will always be available to address any questions or concerns you may have.
