Nominee Shareholder Service

Service Overview

A nominee shareholder is a professional individual or entity that appears as the legal owner of shares in a company, while the actual beneficial ownership remains with you. This arrangement enhances privacy, as your name does not appear in public records as a shareholder, while still ensuring that you retain all economic benefits and control over your company through confidential legal agreements.

Our nominee shareholder service is designed for businesses seeking enhanced privacy, confidentiality, and compliance with local requirements in various offshore jurisdictions. All nominee shareholders are experienced professionals with relevant qualifications and are bound by strict confidentiality agreements and legal arrangements that protect your interests as the beneficial owner.
