Private Trust Companies

A private trust company (PTC) is generally established by a wealthy family to act as trustee of specific family trusts. It allows the family to retain a level of influence over their family trusts as they can have input into the choice of the directors of the PTC and in fact, family members or their trusted advisers may sit on the board of such companies.

The PTC may also allow the family greater flexibility when it comes to the choice of investment strategy and advisors. Often a PTC is run in conjunction with a family office.
