What is included in the nominee service

The service is built not only around the role (director/shareholder), but around a legal document package that defines authority limits, approval logic, reporting, communication, and risk allocation.

1) Case assessment & applicability BHL first checks whether a nominee structure is appropriate for your exact business case.
  • business purpose and corporate role of the entity;
  • group structure and jurisdictions involved;
  • banking / PSP / counterparty risk profile;
  • compliance and AML/KYC applicability check.
2) Choosing the nominee format We define whether you need nominee director, nominee shareholder, or a combined setup.
  • Nominee Director;
  • Nominee Shareholder;
  • Combined nominee setup;
  • Additional corporate role design (if needed).
3) Corporate document package Documents are the core of legal control and predictability.
  • corporate resolutions and internal approvals;
  • nominee / governance agreements;
  • powers of attorney (where applicable);
  • internal limitations and instruction procedures.
4) Governance rules & communications We define what the nominee may do, what needs prior approval, and how instructions are sent and recorded.
  • transaction and signature limits;
  • approval workflow and escalation rules;
  • communication channels and response deadlines;
  • document storage and handover procedures.
5) Legal support & maintenance BHL can support the structure in operation: changes, bank/PSP requests, updates to the legal package.
  • document updates after corporate changes;
  • support for banks/PSP/counterparty queries;
  • legal comments on risk-sensitive decisions;
  • integration with BHL services (DOO, address, fintech, tax, etc.).
A nominee structure is only workable when it is document-driven. Without clear governance documents, nominee roles create unnecessary legal and operational risk.

Important limitations & compliance

BHL provides nominee services only for lawful business purposes and within a compliance-oriented framework. This is essential for banking, licensing, tax consistency, and long-term legal safety.

Lawful purposes only The service is not intended for illegal activity, deceptive structures, or misleading regulators / financial institutions.
Compliance screening required BHL reviews business model, jurisdictions, counterparties, and risk indicators before launch.

Banks, PSPs, and other counterparties may require beneficial ownership disclosure and supporting documents. Nominee service does not cancel legal disclosure obligations.
BHL does not provide nominee services for fictitious management, false documentation, concealment of mandatory disclosures, or any activity that breaches law or compliance standards.
