The Estate Registry is a pioneer of estate management services, providing cloud-based tools and services for inter-generational estate management.
The Estate Registry was created by a team of professionals with decades of service experience to organisations and individuals throughout the United States, Canada, and the United Kingdom, where they saw first-hand the challenges of estate management – especially in the period after a person has passed. In response to this The Estate Registry was created to give people and organisations a range of services that can help automate and smooth the transition of assets to beneficiaries.
