Sovereign Trust (SA) Limited (‘Sovereign’)

Sovereign Trust (SA) Limited (‘Sovereign’) Sovereign’s core business is setting up and managing companies, trusts and other international business structures. Sovereign can incorporate companies in most jurisdictions, both offshore and onshore and are licensed as a corporate service provider in a variety of jurisdictions including countries in the Middle East, Europe and Asia and a number of offshore islands.

Sovereign can assist South African exporting businesses by providing advice regarding the most suitable jurisdictions to incorporate a company in, in order to:

• Create the necessary corporate presence to facilitate business in a particular region or country;
• Make use of lower corporate tax rates in countries other than South Africa and take advantage of beneficial double tax agreements; and
• Explore international business opportunities. 

Once an appropriate jurisdiction has been decided on, Sovereign has the expertise to set-up and manage the company without taking over the actual business affairs of the client. In other words, Sovereign provides the client with the ‘shell’ or platform from which to do business, so that the aforementioned advantages can be capitalised on.
