Corporate Structuring

Corporate Advisory

Holding structures.

Holding companies and group structures that consolidate ownership, ringfence risk and hold assets and IP efficiently across borders.

What it is

How the group is held.

Above the operating businesses sits the structure that holds them — and how that structure is built shapes everything from tax to risk to succession. A well-designed holding structure consolidates ownership, ringfences risk between parts of the group, and holds assets and intellectual property where they are most efficient and best protected.

We design holding and group structures around how a business actually works, not around a template — then coordinate the providers who form and administer them.

How we advise

Consolidating ownership

Bringing the group’s interests under a coherent ownership structure.

Ringfencing risk

Separating parts of the group so risk does not pass between them.

Assets and IP

Holding assets and intellectual property where they are efficient and protected.

Built around the business

Designing the structure around how the business actually operates.
