Exploring the Benefits of Belize International Trusts for Asset Protection and Estate Planning


At Quijano & Associates (Belize) Limited, we recognise the importance of safeguarding your wealth and regaining control over your financial future. That’s why we are proud to announce that we are now authorised to assist you with forming trusts, offering you the tools and resources you need to achieve your financial goals confidently.


Trusts are powerful legal tools that allow individuals and businesses to protect and manage their assets effectively. Whether you’re looking to safeguard your wealth for future generations or preserve your assets, establishing a trust can provide you with the peace of mind and security you need to navigate today’s complex financial landscape. By engaging with experienced professionals who understand the intricacies of trust formation, you can ensure that your assets are protected and your financial goals are met.


In Belize, the definition of a trust under the Belize Trusts Act encompasses arrangements where property is held by a trustee for the benefit of specific individuals (Beneficiaries), for charitable purposes, or a combination of both.


The benefits of registering an international trust, particularly those established in Belize, include:

  • Asset Protection: Due to the separation between beneficial and legal ownership of assets, international trusts can offer robust asset protection, potentially protecting assets from creditors and lawsuits.

  • Confidentiality: Belize has stringent regulations about confidentiality, which safeguard the privacy of trust arrangements and the identities of settlors, trustees, and beneficiaries.

  • Flexibility: Belize’s regulations allow various trusts to meet diverse needs, including succession planning, charitable purposes, or specific family arrangements.

  • Estate Planning: International trusts are valuable tools in estate planning, as they minimise estate taxes and probate costs while enabling settlors to retain and transfer assets as required.

  • Preservation of Assets: International trusts provide effective asset management and distribution, assisting in maintaining and protecting family wealth for future generations.


In conclusion, international trusts provide numerous advantages, including a secure and flexible mechanism for asset protection, estate planning, asset preservation, and privacy.
