What I could find was this: here the translator didn't translate. But for the text I'm translating that doesn't seem an option..

depository trust company / custodian company
Explanation:
The problem is that a "stichting", in effect a foundation, is not the same as a trust in the Anglo-Saxon sense, for which there is no equivalent under Dutch law ("Administratiekantoor" being the Dutch legal solution to such a trust).

custodian foundation


Explanation:
What I have found until now seems to indicate that this is a specific name "Stichting bewaarbedrijf XX" and there are several of these in The Netherlands.
Having said this, the definition of a 'bewaarbedrijf' can be found at the indicated link. The closest I have found to this definition is custodian bank. See reference in wikipedia.

  -> Thanks Hasselt

agree  Allison Klein: an option might be to put 'stichting bewaarbedrijf' in italics, and the English after between parentheses. Seen this done with 'stichting derdengelden'
