Nigel Rodrigo

I’m Nigel Rodrigo, an International Estate & Structuring Advisor with Jersey Trust, a licensed corporate service provider in Dubai.

Originally from Australia, I relocated to Dubai to specialise in cross-border wealth structuring for high-net-worth individuals navigating the UAE’s unique opportunities and regulatory landscape. My practice focuses on foundations, corporate structures, and Golden Visa residency solutions designed around complex multi-jurisdictional tax positions and long-term strategic objectives.

I work with international clients holding UAE property portfolios, managing significant cross-border assets, or requiring sophisticated protection and succession planning. My approach is collaborative: integrating seamlessly with your existing legal, tax, and financial advisors to ensure compliant, strategic implementation tailored to your specific circumstances.

If you’re managing wealth across jurisdictions or establishing your presence in the UAE, I provide the expertise and local insight to help you structure with confidence.
