The BestwickRussell approach

Most families of means have advisers in several places. We are the ones who bring the accountancy, the tax and the structures under one senior relationship, working alongside your trustees, lawyers and wealth managers, and looking ahead so decisions are made in good time.

You get the capability of a trust company, held at senior level, without the fees or the distance a separate one usually brings.

Frequently asked questions

Your questions, answered.

The questions we are most asked about managing private wealth in Jersey.

 [Speak to Greg ](/contact)

**How is this different from your personal tax service?**

Personal tax is the return and the planning behind it. Private wealth work sits above that: it coordinates your tax, structures, investment vehicles, residency and off-island interests as a continuing relationship that runs through the year. It is the difference between filing a return and having someone hold all of it and keep it consistent. Many people who come to us have gathered three or four advisers over the years who have never spoken to one another.

**How does this compare to using a trust company?**

We can form and administer structures, companies and private investment vehicles, in-house under our own licence. A trust company can form and run your structures, but the accountancy and tax usually sit elsewhere, which means more fees, more handovers and more people who each see only their part. We hold the structures and the accountancy together, so one senior team sees the whole of it.

**I already have a wealth manager or trust company. Why would I also need a Jersey accountant?**

Your wealth manager or trust company typically is not handling your Jersey tax filings, your personal return, or the accountancy side of any structures you hold. We work alongside them as the Jersey accountancy and tax piece, not as a replacement.

**Can you handle both the family office and the family's personal affairs?**

Yes, and there is real value in one firm doing both. The personal and the structural sides interact constantly, and holding them together means a decision on one is made with the other in view.

**What size or type of family do you work with?**

There is no single profile. We look after individuals, couples and families across several generations, from those with a single structure to family offices running many. What they share is enough going on to want it held in one place and handled by senior people.

**What does personal financial management include?**

It is a service shaped around you and your individual needs. It goes beyond the tax and the accounts, tailored to what you actually need, whether that is managing the flow of paperwork, collecting it from your home, staying on top of correspondence, or making sure nothing in your financial life is left unattended. It suits families who spend long periods off-island or are here only seasonally, giving them someone on the ground keeping everything in order while they are away. You decide how much we take on, and we fit around you from there.

**Can you help with passing wealth to the next generation?**

Yes. We look at your position early and plan ahead, so wealth passes on deliberately and in good time, with the tax and the structures considered together. We work alongside your lawyers on the legal side, holding the accountancy and the numbers.

**Can you review arrangements someone else has already put in place?**

Yes, and it is a common reason people come to us. We take on families whose affairs were set up elsewhere, review what is in place, tell you honestly where it stands, and fix what needs fixing before looking after it from there.
