Why Asset protection

In our current claim culture it is very important that your assets are well protected. Entrepreneurs know that best. A separation between the private equity and venture capital ensures that your money is safe in case of a bankruptcy or a claim.

How do you protect your business assets? In addition how do you secure your private equity claims in the private sphere?

Inco Trust can inform you about the possibilities of protecting your assets, form complete ownership structures to a simple incorporation of a family trust.

There is no better way to protect your affairs and privacy from potential adversaries than through the creation of a well constructed offshore structure. As many countries become increasingly more litigious, governments continue to encroach on civil liberties and privacy and technology continues to make it easier for hungry lawyers to search for assets while making the decision whether or not you are “sue worthy”, many would benefit from establishing an offshore presence to protect at least a portion of their assets.

Offshore asset protection structures generally involve at least one offshore trust or offshore private foundation perhaps coupled with an underlying offshore company. Utilizing multiple jurisdictions is often desirable making it more difficult to locate and win judgments against any assets.

Clients are advised that in order to set up a proper asset protection structure, the client must be willing to give up “ownership” of the actual assets being placed into it. Not to worry though, as many legal and contractual safeguards are put into place. Additionally, it is possible to appoint protectors or guardians as well as several other roles within the structure to provide a further comfort level for the client. There are several structuring options available whereby the client can retain control in various roles within the structure if desired.
