From this picture, Centry designs a wealth plan tailored to meet your specific objectives and constraints. The outcome is practical optimisation and recommendations, not just organisation: where to draw liquidity from, how to reduce unnecessary taxable impact, how to handle capital calls, how to spot avoidable fees, and how to make tax and wealth decisions work together.
Do you replace my existing advisers?
It depends on what works best for you. Many clients choose Centry as their single point of coordination for tax and wealth. Others prefer to keep trusted advisers in place and have Centry work alongside them, providing the central operating layer that connects everything into one plan.
Either way, nothing is disrupted without your agreement.
Is Centry service or software?
Both. Centry has built its own software in-house and combines it with human expertise for speed, precision and efficiency.

Do I need to move my assets to work with Centry?
No. Centry starts by understanding what you already own, where it is held, how it is taxed, who advises on it and what decisions are coming up. If a better structure, custodian, portfolio setup or liquidity route is appropriate, Centry can help implement that with the client's authority and the right professional or regulated partner involvement.
Is Centry only for ultra-wealthy families?
No. Centry is for people whose financial life has become too complex for disconnected advisers and spreadsheets. That often means globally mobile founders, investors and families with cross-border tax, residency, company, property, private investment, digital asset, estate planning or adviser complexity. The driver is complexity, not a published net worth threshold.
Is this AI advice?
No. Centry is human-led and AI-supported. Our private agentic software stack helps organise information, model scenarios, identify optimisation opportunities, prepare workflows and monitor change. Consequential tax, investment, structuring and execution decisions remain reviewed by Wealth EngineersWealth EngineerA highly qualified financial adviser who takes an engineering approach to your wealth, using rigorous analysis, bespoke modelling and structured planning to build and evolve a plan tailored to your goals, constraints and life stage, while solving the novel challenges that inevitably emerge along the way., tax professionals and, where required, regulated partners.
Is Centry regulated?
Yes. Centry operates as a tied agent regulated under the CMVM (Comissão do Mercado de Valores Mobiliários) in Portugal. We are subject to applicable EU regulatory frameworks including MiFID II, MiCAR and ESMA guidelines, and can serve clients across the broader European Union.
Can I use tax services without wealth services?
Yes. Many clients start with tax restructuring alone: residency planning, cross-border filings, entity structuring or compliance review. The wealth and tax services are designed to work together, but you are not required to use both. You can add wealth services later if and when it makes sense.
What happens after the first call?
If there is a fit, Centry begins with a diagnostic. We map your tax, wealth, residency, entities, assets, advisers, documents and upcoming decisions. From there, Centry prepares a detailed tax plan, supports implementation and provides ongoing monitoring so tax and wealth decisions continue to work together.
Is my information private?
Yes. Centry works with sensitive financial, tax and family information, so privacy is central to the service. Centry uses secure, access-controlled workflows, Swiss-hosted infrastructure and private data handling designed for sensitive financial information.
