Fiduciary sector
Since 1926, Liechtenstein’s liberal, innovative company law has provided a legally secure framework for dedicating assets to a specific purpose and preserving them for future generations. Trustees offer internationally oriented, tailor-made solutions for this purpose. Liechtenstein’s strengths, such as legal certainty and stability, provide a solid basis for client-oriented services. The fiduciary sector is regulated and supervised by the Financial Market Authority (FMA).
