Corporate
Why Cyprus
A Cyprus trust is a trust formed under Cyprus law for succession, family wealth and asset protection. 4Corporate coordinates the deed, letter of wishes and appointment of a licensed trustee through local counsel. It can hold a Cyprus company, financial assets or other permitted property, with settlor, protector and beneficiary terms written for your family purpose.
Why a Cyprus trust
A Cyprus trust gives you a European-law vehicle for succession and protection, with a licensed trustee and a deed that can hold company shares or other permitted assets. Settlor reserved powers, protector roles and beneficiary classes are documented with counsel so control and benefit sit where you intend.
How 4Corporate supports you
A trust only protects what is structured well and executed locally. We help you define the purpose, appoint a licensed trustee, and coordinate the deed so you are not left to interpret a foreign trust law alone. We stay with you through the practical local necessities of getting the structure live. A private consultation confirms settlor, beneficiaries and next steps before documents are signed.
