About Freeport Trust Company Limited

Operating from Douglas since 1974, when it began as a small partnership, this owner-managed fiduciary firm is regulated on the Isle of Man and led by its directors, who deal directly with clients. It reports serving clients in 25 jurisdictions and about half a billion pounds of assets under administration. Its three practice areas are corporate, trust and multi-family office work, and its brochure is aimed at international clients and their advisers. Corporate engagements include holding companies, trading structures and vehicles for property, private equity, technology, e-commerce, aviation, yachts, natural resources and family wealth. The team combines accountants, trust and estate practitioners and compliance professionals. The site also carries material on moving to the island and on why the jurisdiction suits cross-border structures.
