“My Trustee at VG has looked after the offshore interests of myself and my family for nigh on two decades and they continue to do so, as Trustee and Director across a large group structure, with interests across the globe. They have taken the trouble to get to know us, our business, and various objectives closely. It is all about trust, and we trust them to do the correct thing for the beneficiaries, at all times. It is a great source of comfort to us."
