L&ELP and L&EGC’s main operational base has been the United Kingdom (UK) since its founding roots in 2001.
In early 2021 we opened our first European Union office to ensure practical access to, and legal compliance with the EU, post Brexit. Albeit knowing it would likely be amended post final legal exit terms. It was based in Athens, Greece near the Ellinikon project.
In the third quarter of 2022 we opened an office in the USA. We conducted an extensive search, and settled on Spokane, Washington. Washington state is a a thriving marketplace for ideas, inclusive innovation, and invention. Spokane itself is considered one of the most welcoming of U.S. cities.
Concluding a busy start logistically to the early 2020s our Spanish office opened in the last quarter of 2022, in Barcelona, where the companies had existing business interests. It replaced the Athens office.
Additional agent offices are in located in Australia, Canada, Dubai, South Africa, Taiwan, the United Kingdom and USA.At the start of 2024 we commenced a review of operations post formal Brexit agreements between the UK and the EU, plus elections in the EU´s three major economies.
The extensive review ended in September 2024. It concluded that, whilst we remain committed to the EU, the businesses and our clients would be best served via a European Economic Activity (EEA) base. That EEA base was identified as Switzerland.
We researched the benefits of Zurich and Geneva locales, eventually settling on Nyon, situated on Lake Geneva near the Jura mountains, it offers the charm and culture of Geneva, but in a quieter, more laid-back setting, whilst only 30 minutes from Geneva city itself.
Commencing 2025 Nyon becomes our joint operational base along with our original office located in the iconic London garden square that is Berkeley Square, Mayfair.
Additionally, 2025 we see us our commitment to Morocco and North Africa. Our office will aim to benefit from and assist King Mohammed VI and the Moroccan government in their clear commitment to sustainable economic growth and the environment. Not solely in Morocco, but also in the complete MENA region.
L&EGC, L&EIP* and LERM bases in the UK and Switzerland give a perfect synergy, whilst retaining EU market access.
London and Geneva’s financial and professional services sectors are unparalleled, ranging from banking to insurance; asset management to green finance; professional services to fintech.
The knowledge, experience and talent across each of the sector verticals in London and Geneva is world class, making them uniquely positioned to assist and enhance our operations, as both financiers and professional advisors, globally.
Leveraged & Equity Global Capital S.A., our financing and investment operation, is registered in the British Virgin Islands (BVI), whilst operating from our offices in London, Nyon and Washington.
The BVI is a British Overseas Territory and so the law of the country is based on the British legal system and English common law. One of the two pillars of the economy is offshore financial services.
This historical and legal background continues to give the BVI several clear advantages for the international business community, including enduring political and economic stability, a business-friendly operating environment and a well-developed infrastructure.
