Trust Arrangement

Applications to open an account for a trust structure must be supported by certified copies of the following documentation:

  • Front cover of the Trust Deed, together with the relevant extracts showing:

o Name of the trust

o Date of establishment

o Jurisdiction (country) of establishment

o Details of the Trustee(s), Settlor(s), Protector(s) and/or Enforcer(s), where applicable

o Beneficiaries or classes of beneficiaries

Note: The full Trust Deed is not required

  • Any supplemental deeds, including deeds of appointment, retirement or other amendments executed since the trust was established.
  • A trust structure chart identifying all parties to the trust arrangement (certification is not required).

Where a corporate trustee is appointed, the trustee will also be required to provide the documentation applicable to corporate applicants.

In addition, key individuals connected to the trust arrangement, including trustees, settlors, protectors, enforcers and, where applicable, beneficiaries, will be required to provide proof of identity. Please refer to the Individuals section for further details on the documentation and certification requirements.
