We deliver a range of benefits to our clients, which include:
- Independence – many fund managers and issuers are realising the advantage of appointing an independent corporate trustee over in-house or private trustees, especially for superannuation funds.
- Confidentiality – all corporate trust appointments are treated in utmost confidence, with formal procedures in place to ensure that information gained in the course of business is not available to other divisions of Guardian Trust.
- Experienced staff – our competent team of professionals have extensive knowledge and experience in corporate trustee, financial, accounting, audit and general business processes allowing us to understand our clients' products.
- Account management – all clients have unrestricted access to a personal relationship manager which ensures ease of communication and rapid response to their issues.
- Partnership – our approach to business is very much one of a partnership with our clients. We undertake our role in a constructive and pragmatic manner, focusing on the key issues but leaving clients to manage their business.
- Legal representation – we engage external legal firms with proven experience in the various services we provide which provide both time and cost efficiencies. Ongoing legal costs are monitored to ensure costs are minimised and only incurred after consultation with our clients.
- Fees – we provide a highly competitive fee structure that provides value for money whilst reflecting the work and responsibility that would need to be undertaken in our role as a corporate trustee.
- Reputation – We have built our business on the combined strength of our name and our reputation for integrity and service. Our market leading position and esteemed client list is testimony to the reputation of the Guardian Trust name.
