Trust and Trustee Services
A fiduciary structure can help preserve your wealth and offer
you greater flexibility over the management and distribution
of your assets. The most common type of fiduciary structure
is a trust, a binding arrangement whereby assets are transferred
to a “trustee” who is required to administer the
trust assets for the benefit of specified beneficiaries strictly
in accordance with the terms of the trust. Through OCRA London’s

- A bespoke service regarding the establishment of an offshore
trust

Foundation and Council Services
Foundations are a very important component when structuring
the ownership of family and corporate assets and are particularly
important where trusts are generally not requested. They are in
many respects similar to corporate entities but afford the protection
and continuity derived from the use of trusts.
Practical uses include:
- Holding assets which can be passed on from one generation to
the next (estate planning)
- Asset protection
- Inheritance tax planning
- Avoidance of forced heir ship rules
- Maintenance of corporate control
- Separation of voting and economic benefits
- Employee share option schemes
- Pension funds
