Why Bahamas

A Bahamas trust is a trust formed under Bahamas law for succession, family wealth and asset protection. 4Corporate coordinates the deed, letter of wishes and appointment of a licensed Bahamas trustee through local counsel. This is a separate offering from a Bahamas company, Bahamas residency and Bahamas banking. Timelines and fees are confirmed in consultation.

Why a Bahamas trust

Clients typically use a Bahamas trust when they want a Caribbean-law trust that can hold company shares or financial assets, often beside a Bahamas company or a 4Corporate banking introduction. Trustee, protector and beneficiary terms are documented with counsel.

How 4Corporate supports you

4Corporate coordinates the trust through licensed local counsel: structure, documents, filing or execution, and first-year liaison. A confidential consultation is the usual next step. Formation times, capital, tax treatment and fees are confirmed there rather than published as fixed figures here.
