Off-Balance Sheet Funds

Understanding Off Balance Sheet (OBS) Funds and Their Role in Sovereign Trust Banking

At US Capital Private Bank, we provide sophisticated financial solutions, including managing Off Balance Sheet (OBS) funds, to protect client sovereignty, optimize asset management, and ensure compliance with trust structures and Divine Law jurisdiction.

🔍 What Are Off Balance Sheet Funds?

• Definition:
  Funds or assets not recorded on the bank’s or trust’s main balance sheet, but still controlled or managed on behalf of clients.

• Purpose:
  OBS funds help segregate assets, reduce regulatory burdens, and maintain confidentiality and financial privacy.

• Common Examples:

  • Special Purpose Vehicles (SPVs)

  • Trust accounts held separately from core bank assets

  • Contingent liabilities or guarantees not recognized as direct debts

🛡️ Why Use Off Balance Sheet Funds at US Capital Private Bank?

• Sovereign Asset Protection:
  OBS funds are held in Express Trust structures ensuring legal separation and enhanced privacy.

• Regulatory Optimization:
  OBS arrangements reduce on-ledger exposure, supporting regulatory capital efficiency.

• Confidentiality:
  Clients benefit from discreet asset management, shielding sensitive holdings from public or regulatory disclosure beyond necessary compliance.

• Flexible Financing:
  OBS funds can be leveraged for project financing, trade finance guarantees, and liquidity solutions without impacting core bank balance sheets.

⚙️ How OBS Funds Operate Within Our Trust Framework

• Segregation:
  OBS funds reside in distinct trust accounts or entities, each governed by explicit trust agreements.

• Control:
  Although off-balance, these funds remain under client control via trustee powers and private banking portals.

• Accounting:
  OBS funds follow special accounting and reporting protocols, separate from the bank’s primary financial statements.

• Compliance:
  Rigorous AML/KYC and audit processes ensure lawful management without compromising privacy or sovereignty.

🌍 Practical Use Cases

• Project Funding:
  OBS funds finance infrastructure or GDP development projects while maintaining balance sheet clarity.

• Trade Finance:
  Off balance sheet guarantees and letters of credit improve transaction security without impacting leverage ratios.

• Wealth Management:
  High-net-worth clients use OBS structures to shield assets and manage risk.

• Contingent Liabilities:
  OBS treatment of guarantees and derivatives limits reported liabilities.
