They say there is nothing more certain in life than death and taxes. I would add regulatory change to this list of certainties. As well as being inevitable, all three share another characteristic as the timing of these events can often be unpredictable (or uncertain)!
Mandatory Disclosure Rules (“MDR”) for CRS Avoidance Arrangements and Opaque Offshore Structures were approved by the States of Guernsey. This is in line with Guernsey’s commitment to introduce legislation for MDR by 31 December 2019 in line with the timetable set for EU countries.
Similar commitments have also been reflected across the crown dependencies in a bid to preserve our regulatory environment. The aim is to dissuade advisers from endorsing avoidance schemes by enforcing a responsibility to disclose information on such schemes.
The regulatory world is increasingly complex and as a robustly licensed and regulated trust business, we strive to keep abreast of and implement all relevant regulatory changes in order that we can satisfy our fiduciary obligations as trustee to preserve and enhance your assets.
We send regular emails as to how we help high net worth individuals, and their families, with their bespoke wealth needs.
Should you require any further information as to how we help family offices, please contact your usual Nedgroup Trust relationship manager who would be happy to discuss examples of the support we provide and help you understand the different options available to you.
