SWISS, EUROCLEAR, CLEARSTREAM OR ACH FACILITY ACCESS
Select private trusts and fiduciary companies now have access to the same financial transfer systems used by the major players. A Swiss Trust Company can help a relatively small, private financial institution gain access to this elite group, including SWIFT, Euroclear and Clearstream, in a relatively short amount of time and at a very low fee.
Real-World Example:
Imagine the owner of a Panamanian FOREX brokerage has the following requests that their current offshore company can not provide:
- Cheaper access to SWIFT
- Acquisition in a high-profile jurisdiction in order to conduct international business and simplified use of correspondent accounts
- Manage family assets and estate plans
- Safer assets and anonymity via offshore structuring
Through acquisition of a Swiss Trust Company, they would immediately gain the following advantages:
- Acquire an organization that can quickly obtain SWIFT membership.
- Before: Process 10 transfers per week at $1,600 per transfer, totaling approx. $64,000 per month
- After: Process unlimited transfers at $30 per transfer, totaling approx. $1,200 per month. This is a savings of $62,800 per month,
or $753,600 per year - Create sub-accounts for managing family and personal funds apart from business considerations
- Safer assets through Bearer Shares and Swiss anonymity laws
