Did you know we have had a significant presence in the Middle East for over 17 years? We have two offices in the region and our Channel Islands team make regular visits to colleagues and clients.

Recently we surveyed professional advisors servicing clients based in the UAE, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Oman, Kuwait and Bahrain to examine their views on wealth structuring, the rise of families with a global mindset and succession planning. The results show that wealthy Middle Eastern families are looking to the Channel Islands when it comes to structuring strategies. Jersey, Singapore, Switzerland and Guernsey have been ranked as the four most favoured jurisdictions by advisers to Middle Eastern families seeking wealth management and succession solutions outside the region.

Through our exceptional client service and ability to navigate the complexities of conducting business in the region we have cemented our position as one of the leading corporate service providers. Intertrust can provide complex structuring solutions based on a regulatory and economic substance approach to clients and business partners alike and we operate in all the major financial services in the world.
