Offshore Holding

The holding company is the preferred option for many businesses that wish to minimise risk, reduce taxation and effectively manage sister companies. Holdings take a major part in asset protection and we offer combined structures such as personal investment structures, real estate structures and risk protection structures. There are three types of holding companies.
Operational Trading Holding
This type of holding is conducting actual business and has usually grown from a regular corporation that has needed to outsource its work to its own sister companies due to expansion. The disadvantage of this type of holding company is that as the main holding company is still continuing to conduct daily business it will always face the possibility of claims or bankruptcy. Should a bankruptcy occur all the sister companies will also be deemed bankrupt. Due to the high risks associated with this type of holding Coldwell do not recommend this service to clients.
Asset Management Holding
The asset management holding purchases shares in other companies that it feels will make a profitable return. It will actually trade in shares and has no actual personal connection or activity with any of the companies from which it purchases shares. The asset management holding only has interest in increasing profits on share values.
Management Holding
The management holding is a mixture of an operational holding and an asset management holding. It mainly holds and manages the shares and assets of its own sister companies but does not conduct business itself. The management holding company is the preferred option for the expanding business that may wish to separate different parts of its business into different sister companies. The holding can provide loans and services to the sister companies and the sister companies can benefit from the existing organisational structure. But a bankruptcy of one of the sister companies will not affect the holding. The profit of the sister companies can be transferred as dividends to the holding which is registered offshore and has no taxation.
Advantages in forming a holding through Coldwell:
- liability may be reduced to just one of the sister companies
- bankruptcy claims do not affect the main holding company
- dividend payments to the holding company are free from taxation
- any earned income derived from the holding company may be reinvested without taxation
- sister companies of the original holding company benefit from the organisational structure
