Proper structure and governance are needed for the success of any organisation, and family offices are no exception. As a global service provider and partner to family offices worldwide, we have seen the private trust company (PTC) emerging as among the most popular across the globe.<\/p>\n

The PTC is a powerful legal framework for preserving and enhancing a family\u2019s wealth, linking in family offices, streamlining governance, and optimising succession planning strategies.<\/p>\n

But what exactly is a PTC, and how might it benefit your family office?<\/p>\n

Together with the help of my colleagues from our key private wealth jurisdictions, we have produced a guide that explains the nature and benefits of a PTC, including why it is worth considering for your family office structure.<\/p>\n
