Topaz Services, S.A.
Panamanian Private Interest Foundations are very popular for succession planning, asset protection and as a holding entity forming part of a larger international structure. This type of entity brings together the benefits of a Trust, for asset management; and the practicality and flexibility of a Corporation, for its legal existence and structure. Unlike a Corporation, however, the Private Interest Foundation has no owner, instead it has a founder, a foundation council and beneficiaries.
We provide a full range of incorporation, management, accounting and council services in relation to Panamanian Foundations and our company has the necessary technical skills, as well as experience, in forming Private Interest Foundations for our clients, either to hold real estate, company’s shares, brokerage accounts or bank accounts in Panama, as well as in other countries.
We will be happy to discuss this very important subject with you and our advice is given in complete confidence

Our Approach
The average individual client does not want to lose ultimate control or ownership of his assets while he is alive but seeks to have his assets managed by professionals who will also act for him after his death, as they have for him during his lifetime, but with one or more new beneficiaries. We understand that our clients are often concerned about confidentiality and we therefore have the utmost respect for their privacy, especially when it comes to family wealth and succession planning.
