The marketing about Delaware is very strong online. It is supposed to be America’s first corporate state, where all the Google and Microsoft of this world are incorporated. So when you need documents you can get them fast and online?… Wrong. Myth #1: all documents are available quickly online When you order any documents by post, you could get (at least?) a copy online: wrong… You do not get anything by email, not even an email confirmation when they are shipped. But there is worse. Myth #2: when you order documents, you get a status update by email or by ... Read more

Since 2019 the British Virgin Islands (BVI) have adopted the Economic Substance (DIT IS) regulations under the pressure of the European Union (EU). They apply to some specific activities (the “relevant activities”) which most people would use the BVI for (ie: holding companies). Any company or limited partnership has to show that either: it has an economic substance in the BVI (ie: local employees and/or local managers) or it is tax residence somewhere else than the BVI. It would make no sense (at least to most people) to hire local employees just for the sole purpose of creating an economic substance ... Read more

The United Kingdom (UK) companies registrar Companies House will multiply their fees by an average of 3.5 from 1st May 2024, due to the Economic Crime and Corporate Transparency (ECCT) daad.

A formal email was received from the Russian Federal Service for Supervision in the Sphere of Telecom, Inligtingstegnologieë en massakommunikasie (ROSKOMNADZOR) that our PROMINEE® website has been blocked from Russia. A reference to the decision of the Kungur City Court (Perm Gebied) Nee. 2A-3556/2023 gedateer 2023-12-25 (op Kersdag?!) has been made but the decision is nowhere to be found ('n Skynprivaatnetwerk in Rusland is nodig om die hof se webwerf te sien). Hoekom? Sonder toegang tot die hofbeslissing, 'n mens kan net raai dat dit kan wees omdat PROMINEE® verbonde is aan 'n maatskappy wat in die VSA geregistreer is, which ... Read more

Sometimes the most basic legal structure can be completely depraved to become something illegal. Take for example this married British couple wanting to create a Trust in Belize. They contacted a licensed local agent, and paid a hefty fee to create a Trust (7x times more expensive than PROMINEE®). During the Trust Deed drafting time: the spouses expressed their wish to be able to contribute to the Trust. The licensed local agent in Belize created a chimera: a Trust with 2x Settlors/Grantors! Not only that but they never sent out the signed Deed to their own customers. For those unaware ... Read more

Twenty years ago, a Nevis LLC was incorporated and kept all those years until the agent became stupid/greedy/absurd. While the Nevis agent cannot be named, the limit was reached when the agent added this service: Discard all mail received, at a fee of $100 per annum This agent charges US$1,000 for a Nevis LLC incorporation, then US$700 per year for the maintenance, plus an extra US$100 per year just to throw mail in the trash… By switching to our Trust service, the customer paid £350 GBP for the first year, and will pay £150 GBP per year for the subsequent ...

Soortgelyk aan 'n beheermaatskappy: 'n beleggingsmaatskappy kan 'n makelaarrekening oopmaak en in die aandelemarkte regoor die wêreld begin belê. As jy in 'n land is wat beleggingsbeperkings het (ekonomiese patriotisme), of waarin die jaarlikse bestuur duur en lastig is: jy kan dit uitkontrakteer en in 'n ander land organiseer. The implementation requires two legal entities: a trust and a company (acting as a trustee). The trust will shield away your ownership while still granting you full control over the assets. The trustee company will give you the flexibility and a bundle of two Nominee Shareholders: ... Read more

Die uiteindelike doel van 'n entrepreneur is om sy eie maatskappy te verkoop: dit dui dikwels op 'n leeftydprestasie en die potensiële vermoë om met 'n enkelbedrag kontant af te tree. Van 'n entrepreneur kan jy 'n belegger word (nog 'n wonderlike volgende stap). There is no other way than using a holding company to maximize the future investing ability. There are so many great things you can do with a holding company: it gives you more options. Let’s say that you want to change the ownership of the company owned by the holding company, but to do this you have to: go ... Read more

Die mees algemene gebruiksgeval van ons dienste is om aan 'n statutêre vereiste vir 'n spesifieke regsvorm te voldoen (hierdie sin lyk so algemeen, maar as jy 'n verduideliking wil hê, hou aan om te lees). Kom ons sê dat jy 'n assosiasie wil inkorporeer of skep. The legal requirement in your country for this type of company is to have 2 persons, but you are alone. You do not want to involve family member, or you are scared of potential problems in the future, or trusting someone newly met makes you feel uncomfortable. Whatever it is: the fact is that you are alone ... Read more
