WHY GIBRALTAR?

Gibraltar offers a compelling and secure environment for asset management, fund and trust creation, backed by legislation that aligns closely with the UK.

LEGAL FRAMEWORK

Gibraltar legislation generally follows UK legislation, and common law applies in Gibraltar. Most UK court decisions are highly persuasive and Privy Council cases are binding precedent.

Gibraltar financial services rules are generally aligned with UK, allowing for direct passporting of some financial services (the only territory to have such), and the laws on trusts, foundations, and funds (amongst others) are carefully crafted to allow a range of products giving tax efficiency and light touch regulation.

TAX ADVANTAGES

Gibraltar is an attractive tax destination, as it levies no capital gains taxes, or taxes on most forms of passive income. Income accrued and derived outside Gibraltar is generally not taxable in Gibraltar.

Funds will almost always suffer no Gibraltar taxes, and as regards trusts, beneficiaries not resident in Gibraltar are not taxed on income or gains, there are no withholding taxes on distributions.

Companies that do set up in Gibraltar to generate income accrued and derived here (such as via licensable activities) generally pay the OECD Pillar II minimum corporate tax rate of 15%, subject to all the usual deductions that a UK company would be familiar with.

HOW WE’VE HELPED

“We’ve been working with Cornwalls, and particularly with Peter and Ed, for over 7 years. Peter and Ed have a wide expertise, both in the accounting and legal fields. Their expertise and pragmatism has helped us enormously in our day-to-day work. In addition to their great professional skills, Peter and Ed are extremely dedicated people who are always available for their clients. Their responsiveness has always been perfect. We are very satisfied with their services and can only recommend them. Many thanks to both of you.”
- Nicholas Stampfli - JAR Switzerland

NOMINEE STRUCTURE
Our investment manager client did not have regulatory permissions to hold client monies, but wanted to assist its clients with investment into high yielding high value secured syndicated loans.

We created a whole nominee structure to allow it to do that via Gibraltar, and managed all drawdowns, interest distributions and cost allocations, as well as the documentation, investor notifications and transaction monitoring.

VAT FREE MEMBERSHIP
A client wanted a home to base the legal entity to manage a classic car club. Cornwalls legal and tax team determined that a Gibraltar based unincorporated association, with a Gibraltar treasurer, was the optimum vehicle. The law in Gibraltar allowed for certainty (and parity with the UK) that it was not a regulated activity of a collective investment scheme.

Cornwalls was able to create sufficient substance in Gibraltar for the membership fees to be free of VAT in UK (and other territories) where the members are based.

“Cornwalls are like family to us. We have a family business and like young families, much of what we’re doing we’re doing for the first time. So, when we have a question about tax reporting or planning, it’s always urgent. That’s where our extended family over at Cornwalls comes in. Always quick to respond, Cornwalls has always been there for us over the years to listen, explain and guide us as we grow our business. We can’t recommend them enough.”
- Ryan Chilcote - Thirty Three Comms
