About U.S. NeoBank Concept

MULTI-JURISDICTIONAL POWER

Now imagine combining the EU Trust Company with an MSB. You obtain a solid multi-jurisdictional structure with the widest possible range of permissible activities while avoiding dependency on any one single jurisdiction or regulatory regime. You can now offer a wide range of financial services without being subjected to formal capital or qualification requirements in either jurisdiction. Your customers access all services seamlessly through your EBANQ Online Banking Platform and optional white label mobile apps for iOS and Android, while from a legal perspective your MSB is offering the payment services, forex, crypto/fiat exchange and wallet services and your Swedish Trust Company operates as the underlying custodian and trust management provider. The entities complement each other in perfect synergy to form a strong multi-jurisdictional financial group with the widest possible range of permissible financial activities.

THE ‘BANK’ IN NEOBANK

We have described how the Trust Company can hold client assets in its capacity as Trustee while the associated MSB provides forex, crypto, money transfers and related services. Some clients also add an optional third entity to the mix, namely a Connecticut Statutory Trust. A statutory trust is different from the ‘regular’ common law trust concept. While the latter is typically just a contract/deed, an agreement for a settlor/grantor to transfer an asset to the trustee to be managed for the benefit of the beneficiaries, the statutory trust is an actual corporate body in itself but with the same legal characteristics as a trust. A statutory trust is a type of hybrid between a corporation and a trust and often referred to as a ‘Business Trust’ in jurisdictions such as Delaware, Wyoming, South Dakota, Florida and others.

WHY CONNECTICUT?

Connecticut (CT) adopted sweeping new trust legislation in 2020 making it a world leading jurisdiction for statutory trusts. It’s straightforward to structure a trust and to get it registered with the Secretary of State. The Trustee can very well be a non Connecticut-resident, e.g. the Swedish Trust Company. It’s possible to include the word ‘Bank’ in the name of a CT Statutory Trust, meaning that this addition to your multi-jurisdictional structure will allow you to use ‘Bank’ in your business name and consequently also on websites and in domains etc. Needless to say, your CT Trust should not engage in any activities requiring a state or federal bank charter. However, considering the wide range of permissible bank-related financial activities available to the MSB-Trust Company hybrid, the ability to include ‘Bank’ in the business name could make operational sense and can add substantial optical value.
