This factsheet outlines the Guernsey Private Trust Company (PTCs), a corporate structure acting specially as a trustee for one or more related trusts. These increasingly popular structures offer greater control for the settlor for clients who may be unfamiliar or uncomfortable with a traditional trust, through a PTC the settlor can control the composition of the board, allowing the client to retain a higher level of control over their wealth. Guernsey allows clients to establish a PTC in an ecosystem of well-regulated providers, with high standards of compliance, flexible and responsive regulation, and access to both UK and EU markets.
