What Are Nominee Director and Nominee Shareholder Services?
A nominee director is a person who is formally appointed as a director of a company but acts on behalf of the ultimate beneficial owner (UBO). Similarly, a nominee shareholder holds shares in the company on behalf of the real owner while maintaining confidentiality.
These structures are commonly used when local company law requires a resident director or shareholder, or when business owners seek greater privacy and operational flexibility.
Common Situations Where Nominee Structures May Be Considered
- Opening a company in jurisdictions that require a local resident director (e.g., Hong Kong, Singapore, UK, UAE)
- Maintaining privacy of beneficial ownership in public registers
- Facilitating international e-commerce, Amazon FBA, cryptocurrency, or fintech businesses
- Meeting licensing or regulatory requirements in certain industries
- Structuring holding companies or asset protection vehicles
