ESTABLISH A BUSINESS RELATIONSHIP
We believe in building a relationship based on trust, professionalism, and confidentiality with all of our partners.
In addition to incorporating and managing companies for our clients, Fiduciary & Trust also acts as a SWISS partner for many firms of accountants, lawyers, tax specialists and business consultants across the globe. We are always keen to welcome suitable, business-minded professionals as new partners and agents who are interested in providing international structures for their clients.
Usually we work through the agent rather than directly with the ultimate client, but in some cases our partners prefer that we work directly with their clients. With sufficient knowledge of all the parties and the business, we can be flexible in our approach and will comply with the requirements of the agent and always strive to comply fully with the introducer's needs.
Please note that where we receive an instruction from an agent to work directly with their client, we are always happy to offer an introducer's fee.
The due diligence requirements which apply to all our direct clients must also be met by all of our business partners.
BECOME AN AGENT
Professional companies or individuals wishing to establish a more formal business relationship based on an agreement with us have the possibility of becoming Fiduciary & Trust agents. Legal, financial and marketing skills and a commitment to maintaining our reputation and high standard of service to clients are key for these representatives.
Our carefully selected agents greatly benefit from their relationship with us. We have established a competitive commission structure and always give considerable assistance to our agents, including :
- Product training
- Marketing support
- Free support from our team of advisors
- Participation in Fiduciary & Trust seminars
- International networking opportunities
- News on relevant local jurisdictions
REGISTRATION OF PATENTS & TRADEMARKS
In order to protect a company name, brand or product, an increasing number of our clients ask us to assist them with SWISS or EU patent or trademark registration. This is a complex process and must be undertaken properly.
You may decide to make your company name, brand or product a trademark, allowing your clients to identify you easily. If this is the case, you should register your trademark as soon as possible to reserve and protect your exclusive rights to the name.
It is also important to conduct a search of existing trademark rights to ensure that you do not encounter problems; by using a name still protected by another company or individual, you could be required stop using it and be liable to pay damages and legal fees. In the same way, by registering your company name, brand or product as a trademark, other companies or individuals will be prevented from using it.
We will be glad to look after the registration process for you in order to protect your company's most valuable assets.
READY-MADE PUBLIC COMPANIES
Our clients can start trading immediately with a ready-made company. Circumstances sometimes dictate that a company is required urgently, for example, in order to complete an important contract.
We always have a number of ready-made companies, also known as shelf companies, available for purchase and immediate transfer to clients. Some of these companies have bank accounts and nominee directors and have been in existence for several years.
