Corporate Structures in Nevis

PMA Trust (Nevis) Ltd. offers tailored corporate vehicles under Nevis law, each designed to provide efficiency, asset protection, and international planning flexibility.

International Business Companies (IBCs)

Formed under the Nevis Business Corporation Ordinance (Cap. 7.01, 1984), IBCs are widely used for international trade, holding structures, and wealth management. They provide governance flexibility, tax neutrality, and privacy by law.

Key Features:

  • No restrictions on shareholder residency
  • Shares in any currency
  • Non-public ownership records

Limited Liability Companies (LLCs)

Created under the Nevis Limited Liability Company Ordinance (Cap. 7.04), LLCs are versatile and protective. They provide separate legal personality, limit member liability, and are ideal for joint ventures, real estate, and investments.

Key Features:

  • Liability limited to contributions
  • Strong creditor protection (bond requirement)
  • Emergency redomiciliation permitted

Trusts

Governed by the Nevis International Exempt Trust Ordinance (Cap. 7.03), trusts are effective tools for estate planning and asset protection. They are not subject to forced heirship rules and can be established for unlimited duration.

Key Features:

  • Charitable, non-charitable, and protective trusts
  • Records maintained by registered agent, not public
  • Long-term succession planning

Each structure is established in compliance with Nevis law and under the supervision of the Nevis Financial Services Regulatory Commission (FSRC). Contact us to discuss the vehicle best suited to your objectives.
