When your superyacht portfolio demands more than traditional management, our chartered accountant expertise combined with maritime specialisation delivers the sophisticated oversight family offices require.
Managing Risks for Family Offices, Fiduciary and Superyacht Owners
Family office fiduciaries for superyachts navigate a complex world. Fluctuating costs, international regulations, and unique asset depreciation challenge their financial expertise. Ensuring transparency amidst complex transactions and managing crew payroll add another layer of difficulty.
1
Managing Complexities
Superyacht ownership presents unique challenges, including operational costs while underway, international regulations, constantly changing fiscal requirements, and responsibility for human lives onboard. Superyachts demand a level of expertise that goes beyond asset management of an estate or investment portfolio.
2
Transparency
Ensuring transparency is a tightrope walk for superyacht fiduciaries. Complex financial transactions involving a high-value, depreciating asset require meticulous record-keeping and clear communication. Fiduciaries must navigate a world of international ownership structures and potential conflicts of interest, all while keeping the family office fully informed.
3
Crew & Operations
Managing crew and operations adds a layer of complexity for superyacht fiduciaries. Beyond standard company administration, they must oversee crew payroll compliance across international borders, navigate the legalities of crew travel, and factor in constantly fluctuating maintenance expenses. Even if there is a manager the professional directors retain responsibility and must demonstrate oversight.
Why Yacht Ownership Complexity Demands Specialist Advisory
