Intertrust Group Holding has acquired fiduciary and
corporate services business Walkers Management Services, a subsidiary of
Walkers Global, for an undisclosed sum. The acquisition – which is subject to
regulatory approval - creates an operation with more than 1,100 people working
in 21 nations.

Walkers Management Services provides corporate, fiduciary
and company secretarial services from the following financial centers: the
Cayman Islands, Delaware, Dubai,
Dublin, Hong Kong and the British
Virgin Islands. It is headquartered in George
Town, Cayman Islands.

The WMS business generates annual sales of more than $50
million.

Under the terms of the deal, Walkers said WMS management “is

"Through the acquisition we gain a market leading position in
the Cayman Islands, one of the most important financial centers in the world,
and we further expand our global network by adding offices in Dubai, Delaware
and the British Virgin Islands,” David de Buck, chief executive of Intertrust,
said in a statement.
