The Codan Trust group of companies (referred to collectively as "Codan Trust") is an international network of licensed trust companies that undertakes a broad range of trust and company administration services for private clients, corporations and charitable entities. Codan Trust has its headquarters in Bermuda and has affiliated offices in the British Virgin Islands and the Cayman Islands.

Conyers Dill & Pearman , founded in 1928, is one of the oldest and largest law firms in Bermuda and has assembled one of the most experienced offshore trust and private client practices in the world. The Conyers Dill & Pearman Private Client team advises individuals, families and corporations on a broad range of issues including estate planning and private investment structures.

The close affiliation between Codan Trust and Conyers Dill & Pearman greatly augments the quality of the trustee services provided. Legal advice is readily available and access to Conyers Dill & Pearman global network of law offices is instant.

The continuous liaison with Conyers Dill & Pearman has built an in-depth understanding of fiduciary principles which apply to Codan Trust’s role as a prudent trustee. It has also enabled Codan Trust to be flexible in its decision making and in finding appropriate solutions to the various unforeseen problems that may arise.
