Establishing a holding company in the Benelux region
A Singapore-based SME sought assistance from Bolder Group to establish holding companies and subsidiaries in the Netherlands and Luxembourg. Bolder provided the following solutions to the client:
- Legal and regulatory compliance services: Bolder had to ensure that the clients’ holding companies complied with the legal and regulatory requirements of the Netherlands and Luxembourg. These services include obtaining permits and licences.
- Tax considerations: Bolder assisted the client in understanding the tax laws and regulations in the Netherlands and Luxembourg, as well as the tax implications for the existing business in Singapore. We ensured the company was structured in a tax-efficient manner.
- Business support: Being based in Singapore, the client needed guidance in familiarising themselves with the foreign jurisdiction’s market conditions. Bolder provided business support to assess risks and identify investment opportunities for the client.
- Company incorporation and administration: As a corporate administrator, Bolder provided ongoing support to the client by preparing the necessary documentation and coordinating with local service providers, including tax advisors, bookkeeping and payroll services and management solutions for the SPV.
It was a challenge for our client to access the Netherlands and Luxembourg markets due to their unfamiliarity with the local regulations. But with our expertise and local presence, Bolder was able to assist the client in efficiently structuring holding companies in the region. We currently provide this client with ongoing corporate and secretarial assistance to help them thrive in this foreign jurisdiction.
