FTC Trust large enough to deliver, small enough to care
 FTC Trust is a management and trust services company founded in 1990 by experienced trust and banking officers. As a medium-sized, management-owned and fully independent firm, we can provide clients with professional service without losing the personal touch. FTC Trust specialises in rendering corporate and trust management services, domiciliation services, basic legal and administrative services and secretarial services to clients operating in international markets.
Located at Schiphol Airport
With a professional staff of 25, FTC Trust has developed its services over more than seventeen years by managing the companies of international clients - both multinationals and high net worth individuals. FTC Trust is strategically located in the Netherlands at Amsterdam Schiphol Airport, with offices in Belgium, Luxembourg, Cyprus and the Netherlands Antilles.
Dedicated staff
Our services are characterised by personal handling of the complete client file. Initial responsibility is taken by an account manager and a secure backup is provided by an assistant account manager. We have a highly educated and dedicated staff whose knowledge is always up-to-date, which enables our clients to make strategic moves on international markets when opportunities arise. FTC Trust provides responsive and quality services that are prompt and cost-effective.
Substance requirements
The importance of a good provider of management and domiciliation services has recently been reconfirmed in a court ruling in the Netherlands, which states that the location of the management and control of a Dutch company prevails in determining eligibility for Dutch taxation. In the field of international taxation, this is commonly known as one of the ‘substance requirements’. Other substance requirements are that a Dutch company should have a board of directors of which the majority resides in the Netherlands, that the administration of the company is carried out in the Netherlands and that it should have a bank account in the Netherlands.
Treaty protection
The principal interest in meeting these substance requirements is to ensure that a Dutch company receives protection from the applicable tax treaty and that the client thus safeguards the tax saving he seeks to realise by interposing a Dutch company in his corporate structure.
As a specialist in this field, we can offer an outstanding level of knowledge and experience.
At FTC Trust, we value the interests of the clients highly and we believe that having a sound business relationship with our clients and their advisers and being aware of the clients’ plans is vital for our role as the representative of our clients. We therefore treat all our clients with priority throughout the course of our business relationship.
The result of this collaboration between client, advisers and FTC is that the goals of the client are met to the highest possible degree.
FTC Trust has been granted a licence by the Dutch Central Bank and can only accept clients who have submitted sufficient information about their backgrounds and the nature of their businesses. In this respect, we maintain a client acceptance procedure that needs to be completed prior to the commencement of a business relationship with prospective clients.
