Yes! We can even create a new one for you, for your next investment project. Our more sophisticated trusts come with an SPV as standard. This includes the establishment of a British Virgin Islands or Hong Kong company. It is a highly flexible asset-holding structure, which mitigates all the risks of holding non-financial assets including company shares, real estate, insurance policies, endowments, vehicles, luxury items, intellectual property and its royalties, as well as patents and copyrights.

SPV assets are managed by a professional trust team for safety and reliability with high level asset privacy protection, shareholder and director nominee services and we open independent bank accounts for you.

  • SMS, Whatsapp and webhook notifications

  • Fixed or asset linked limit controls

  • Real time suspension and limit adjustments

  • Real time password changes

  • You can build functionality on top to suit your use case

  • Direct access to the card factory, packaging and mailing

This co-branding leverages your company's global client base to generate an additional revenue stream.
There will be certain fixed setup and ongoing variable operational costs associated with the partnership. However, these costs are expected to be recouped over time through a profit sharing model. Our goal is to issue 10,000 co-branded cards to clients of each multinational partner company. Please contact us to explore a potential co-branding collaboration and discuss how we can structure an agreement that provides value to your company.

Trust vs Bank

Why use a trust over a bank?

Trust-vs-Bank.jpg

Trust-vs-Bank.jpg

Bank accounts, including private banking are vastly different in structure, legal framework and usefulness. The legal foundation of a bank account is a relatively simple contract. With a trust, you get a trust deed which is a much more powerful legal foundation. Trust deeds give settlors antifreeze protections from sanctions, creditors, tax and other enforcement mechanisms. They provide asset segregation, private and protection contain numerous tax benefits, including mitigation of income, inheritance and capital gains tax.

A trust company like UTGL with an advanced tech stack, a global partner network and asset linked credit card product portfolio can also deliver most of the same services a bank can.
Comparing banks to UTGL trusts is like comparing a bicycle to a formula one racing car. They are not the same!

Global Payroll Management
