Delaware

USA

In 2022, JTC acquired an established offering in Wilmington, Delaware.

The State of Delaware has been a recognized leader and innovator in trust and corporate law since carving out a separate court for business disputes in the State Constitution in 1776. It is a leading US-domestic jurisdiction for trusts due to well-established and flexible trust and tax laws, along with a supportive Governor, legislature and Chancery Court. Delaware was the first state to permit directed trusts, which allows the grantor to split the traditional responsibilities of a trustee between two or more fiduciaries. This approach gives the grantor more flexibility and control with respect to investments.
