The firm incorporated a management company, HC Corporate Services Limited, which is licensed under the Financial and Corporate Service Providers Act, 2000 (as amended), to provide financial and corporate services including, but not limited to, company formation and management services, nominee services, legal and compliance training, management consultancy, accounting and re-invoicing, and business advisory services.
