Society of Trust and Estate Practitioners
The Society of Trust and Estate Practitioners is the professional body for the trust and estate profession, which "blatantly promotes tax haven activity" according to some.[1]
Founded in 1991, it is headquartered in London but has a local branch network which spans 33 countries, including many offshore centres: Cayman Islands, British Virgin Islands, the Turks and Caicos Islands, Bermuda, Isle of Man and Jersey.
As of the end of 2010 STEP had nearly 16,000 members in 66 countries. [2]
