Jurisdictional Review
We assess the client's objectives, investor base and regulatory exposure across relevant jurisdictions to determine the optimal domicile and structure.
Practice Area 03
Guiding clients through jurisdictional structuring, regulatory navigation, and the formation of offshore investment vehicles.
Scope of Work
We guide the establishment of offshore exempted companies, segregated portfolio companies, partnerships and unit trusts — working with leading offshore counsel to ensure each vehicle is fit for purpose from day one.
Where capital, operations and investors span multiple jurisdictions, we advise on domicile selection, regulatory perimeter and treaty considerations — coordinating onshore and offshore advisers into a single coherent structure.
Banking, fiduciary, audit and administration relationships are assembled from long-standing partners in key financial centres, with SENS coordinating so the client deals with one point of accountability.
Structures require stewardship after formation. We advise on economic substance, regulatory developments and evolving compliance obligations as vehicles mature and circumstances change.
Our Process
We assess the client's objectives, investor base and regulatory exposure across relevant jurisdictions to determine the optimal domicile and structure.
Working with leading offshore counsel, we guide the formation of the vehicle — fund, SPV or holding structure — ensuring it is fit for purpose from day one.
Banking, fiduciary, audit and administration relationships are assembled and coordinated, drawing on long-standing partners across key financial centres and beyond.
We remain engaged after formation, advising on governance, regulatory developments and compliance obligations as the structure matures.
