Global Foundation & Trust Design
Foundations and trusts built around four aims: succession planning, legacy protection, family governance and personal asset protection. Every theme is tax-driven. The Panama pages anchor each theme to the family's US and Canadian tax position; the US trust page anchors it to federal tax.
Succession, legacy and family governance, by design.
