About how we protect your assets

 
Monaco Corporate Secretariat prides itself in finding sound international tax planning solutions for you, your estate and your businesses at a competitive inclusive cost.
Protecting your assets is of paramount importance to us, and as and when tax laws change, you are kept uptodate and advised.
We commit to ensure our knowledge is current, and the tax structures planned for you exclusively, work in practice.

About us

Monaco Corporate Secretariat, (hereon referred to as M.C.S.), is well established in Monaco, and a member of many local and international associations. Thinking globally, acting locally is one of MCS's mottos, and as a result MCS supports local charities. On a professional front, MCS is a member of AMPA, ITPA, STEP, AMCO, the IOD, and the Institute of Chartered Accountants of New Zealand.

M.C.S. aims to give a reliable, personal, discrete and professional service.

M.C.S.'s friendly team and board room in Monaco is available to you when you come on board to become our client.

It is important to us to advise you when you need it. To this end, a clear picture is needed of your current situation. With this regard, your telephone communications are important to us and are often included in our fees. We are available to meet with you in person, if need be in one of our affiliate offices abroad, should you be unable to travel to our Monaco Office.

By the way, MCS's policy is to give comprehensive all inclusive quotes with no hidden or additional costs for offshore companies and trusts. This means that annual fees, directors and / or trustee fees and much of the valuable tax planning time is included in the Monaco domiciliation of your company or trust we form and manage for you. As value for money is part of protecting your assets and cash flow, the initial international tax planning session can be deducted from any structure you order from us within one month, as a result of your meeting.
