8 OUR BUSINESS First Names Group is one of the leading independent providers of trust and corporate services in the world. Our ability to operate on a global scale through a network of strategically located offices is fundamental to our success. And our presence in and knowledge of the regulatory landscape in so many of the world s key financial jurisdictions means we can respond to the varied and specific needs of our clients, either directly or via their trusted advisers. We value all of our First Names for their expertise and skills. We have a clear focus on professional qualifications among employees, with many accountants, lawyers, trust and estate practitioners and chartered secretaries providing the necessary experience. Most importantly we are committed to all of our First Names, investing in their professional development to ensure they are always equipped to deal with the ever-changing and complex corporate environment. As an independent firm, we are totally free of the conflicts often associated with institution-owned trust companies. This not only gives us the agility to make decisions quickly but also means we have complete freedom to choose the right banks and investment houses to work with. We do not provide tax, legal or investment advice, choosing instead to work with third-party professionals. We are happy to work with clients or their advisers directly, or as part of a wider team.
