Division: Private Office

We Represent You
in the United Kingdom.

Your permanent London bureau. We represent international principals, families and institutions across the United Kingdom — legal, financial and accounting advisory, company formation, directorship, registered address, secretarial services and property stewardship. Return theses and commercial deployment sit with Capital — not here.

Who We Serve

The Private Office is built for:

— International principals establishing or formalising a UK corporate and property presence
— Families requiring a single London bureau for legal, tax, corporate and administrative matters
— Principals who already hold UK interests and need retained representation, compliance and stewardship
— Family offices needing on-the-ground UK representation and reporting

All engagements are by introduction or direct referral to the desk. We assess fit on objectives and governance need — not ticket size alone. Commercial and development theses are scoped through Capital.

UK Services

UK Representation

We represent you in the United Kingdom — your standing London desk for regulators, counterparties, professionals and property matters. One relationship, full coordination.

Legal Advisory

Coordination with SRA-regulated London law firms on property, corporate, immigration and estate matters. We manage the instruction — you retain a single point of contact at the desk.

Financial Advisory

Banking introductions, mortgage coordination and private banking liaison for your UK entities. We work alongside FCA-authorised advisers where regulated financial advice is required — thesis and financing design sit with Capital.

Ledger and calculator — accounting and reporting desk

Accounting Advisory

UK tax compliance, annual accounts, HMRC correspondence and cross-border reporting coordination with ICAEW and ACCA-qualified accountants.

Company Formation

Incorporation of UK limited companies and LLPs — constitutional documents, shareholder arrangements, Companies House registration and ongoing compliance setup.

Professional handshake — directorship and fiduciary appointment

Directorship Services

Executive and nominee directorship support where appropriate — board appointments, fiduciary coordination and governance liaison with your legal advisers.

Registered Address

Prestigious registered office at Knightsbridge address — your formal UK address for Companies House, HMRC and professional correspondence.

Company Secretarial

Statutory registers, annual confirmation statements, filing deadlines and board documentation — keeping your UK entity compliant without administrative burden.

Property Management

Lettings coordination, tenant referencing, AST contracts, rent collection, maintenance and refurbishment oversight for holdings already under your UK structure — stewardship after you hold, not thesis sourcing.

Portfolio under management — capital growth and asset oversight

Asset Management

Portfolio-level oversight across your UK holdings, coordinated end to end by the desk: financial reporting, performance and valuation analysis, tenant and covenant tracking, risk and compliance monitoring, portfolio risk modelling, and strategic advisory on refinancing and exit timing.

How We Work

Representative scenarios.

Three illustrative structures typical of the representation and administration work we build for international clients — not actual client matters, but a realistic picture of how a UK presence is formalised.

Details below are illustrative only. They do not represent any specific client, matter, outcome, or guaranteed result.

01England & Wales · company formation

Holding Structure Formation

UK company incorporation with registered address and directorship

An international family incorporates a UK holding company ahead of a planned London acquisition — company formation, a Knightsbridge registered address and nominee director service are coordinated as a single process, before the property search begins.

Illustrative single-entity setup

02Cross-border family office

Single Point of UK Representation

Coordinated legal, tax and accounting representation

A family office formalising a UK presence is represented across solicitors, tax advisers and accountants under one Private Office relationship — a single point of contact in place of several disconnected ones.

Illustrative multi-adviser coordination

03Existing UK asset holder

Ongoing Compliance Handover

Transfer of statutory administration to Private Office

A client already holding UK assets transfers annual confirmation statements, statutory registers and filing deadlines to our administration desk — compliance continuity without an in-country team of their own.
