Let’s talk about Delaware (as of 2024): 3 myths to debunk
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
How the EU killed the British Virgin Islands (BVI)
Since 2019 the British Virgin Islands (BVI) have adopted the Economic Substance (INI) 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

PROMINEE® is banned in Russia
A formal email was received from the Russian Federal Service for Supervision in the Sphere of Telecom, Information Technologies and Mass Communications (ROSKOMNADZOR) that our PROMINEE® website has been blocked from Russia. A reference to the decision of the Kungur City Court (Perm Territory) No. 2a-3556/2023 dated 2023-12-25 (on Christmas day?!) has been made but the decision is nowhere to be found (a VPN in Russia is needed to see the court’s website). Why? Without access to the court decision, one can only guess that it could be because PROMINEE® is attached to a company registered in the USA, which ... Read more
Contoh kasus: Trust ilegal di Belize
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
Contoh kasus: dari Nevis ke Trust kami
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 ...

Contoh kasus: sebuah perusahaan investasi
Mirip dengan holding company: perusahaan investasi dapat membuka rekening perantara dan mulai berinvestasi di pasar saham di seluruh dunia. Jika Anda berada di negara yang memiliki batasan investasi (patriotisme ekonomi), atau di mana manajemen tahunan mahal dan memberatkan: Anda dapat melakukan outsourcing dan mengaturnya ke negara lain. Pelaksanaannya membutuhkan dua badan hukum: kepercayaan dan perusahaan (bertindak sebagai wali amanat). Kepercayaan akan melindungi kepemilikan Anda sambil tetap memberi Anda kendali penuh atas aset. Perusahaan wali amanat akan memberi Anda fleksibilitas dan satu paket dari dua Pemegang Saham Nominee: ... Read more

Katakanlah Anda ingin mengubah kepemilikan perusahaan yang dimiliki oleh perusahaan induk, tetapi untuk melakukan ini Anda harus melakukannya: go ... Read more
Contoh kasus: suatu persyaratan undang-undang
The most common use case of our services is to meet a statutory requirement for a specific legal form (this sentence seems so general, but if you want an explanation keep reading). Let’s say that you want to incorporate or create an association. 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
