Capital Security Bank Joins Global Leaders at SOPI 2026
Capital Security Bank will participate in the Southpac Offshore Planning Institute (SOPI) 2026 as a Bronze Sponsor, with Chief Executive Officer Joseph Horn-Smith joining an international lineup of speakers and industry leaders.
Taking place from 14–16 April 2026 at the JW Marriott Parq Vancouver in British Columbia, SOPI 2026 is built around a clear theme: No Longer Optional. The conference reflects a structural shift within global wealth management — the recognition that offshore planning is no longer a specialised or peripheral strategy, but an essential component of modern wealth architecture.
For years, advisors have encouraged clients to prepare for tax reform, political volatility, litigation exposure, and increasing transparency requirements. The premise was that change was coming. Today, volatility is the operating environment. Multi-jurisdictional reporting is standard. Privacy continues to narrow. Litigation risk is expanding. The intergenerational transfer of wealth is accelerating.
SOPI 2026 is designed to address this reality directly.
The conference brings together attorneys, tax advisors, estate planners, litigators, banks, trustees, and investment professionals who operate at the highest levels of international structuring. The objective is practical: to examine how jurisdictional separation, legal durability, continuity across political cycles, and long-term structural planning can form the foundation of resilient wealth strategies.
The Cook Islands and Nevis jurisdictions are long recognised for purpose-built trust and entity legislation, they are positioned as structural anchors in forward-looking planning frameworks. What was once considered advanced planning has become baseline architecture for high-net-worth and ultra-high-net-worth families navigating a complex global environment.
As an international private bank founded in 1997, Capital Security Bank provides banking, investment, and trading services to high-net-worth individuals, corporates, asset managers, trustees, and family offices. Operating from the Cook Islands, a jurisdiction internationally recognised for its robust asset protection and trust legislation, the Bank delivers secure, internationally focused private banking solutions within a stable legal framework.
At SOPI 2026, Joseph Horn-Smith will contribute to the dialogue alongside global industry peers, reinforcing Capital Security Bank’s commitment to disciplined governance, jurisdictional strength, and international financial structuring that meets the evolving expectations of modern clients.
