To continue with our timeline, on the circumstances surrounding the assertions, by a Ukrainian businessman, that he paid one million dollars to acquire a Grenada diplomatic passport, the staff changes at Henley's Singapore office may be relevant to the investigation.
The same dates that Eric Major resigned from the three UK-registered companies, Hudson Troy Ltd. , ex-Newlands Global, Henley & Partners, UK Ltd., and Henley & Partners UK Immigration Ltd., he was immediately replaced as a director, by the COO of the Henley & Partners Trust Group, Dr Juerg (Paul) Steffen. Dr. Steffen is a German-speaking Swiss national, resident in Austria, but located in Singapore, as Managing partner of Henley & Partners Singapore PTE Ltd. He is a former director of UBS Geneva, where he was charge of cross-border wealth planning.

Henley Singapore is located in the Singapore Land Tower, located at 50 Raffles Place. Wells Fargo Bank in Singapore is at 80 Raffles Place. The question remains: Why did Chris Willis instruct his Ukrainian client to wire the million to Henley Singapore, for a diplomatic passport from the Caribbean, when Willis was with Henley Caribbean ?
