International Structures

ENQUIRE NOW

International Structures

Our clients aspire to create value on a global scale. This requires international company structures which shrug off value discounts implied by South African country risk.  We are determined to empower our clients to access global capital, providing “turn key” market standard international structures for that purpose.

ENQUIRE NOW
  • Our unwavering “Lean” approach to the legal structures establishes your international group with defined goals: empowering the offshore company to drive commercial activity and create future value. In that sense, the legal structure is at most “scaffolding” to empower these goals.
  • Don’t get drawn into expensive, cumbersome tax structures which are premature at best or expensively superfluous at worst.  Our approach is simple and transparently explained in our suite of articles below – the goal being to make international investment accessible by any ambitious SA technology company, rather than swamping the client with incomprehensible regulatory advice and opaque costing.

  • The primary goal for most of our clients is to transition their core value to their offshore group IP holding company.  We manage the establishment and practical implementation of the strategy for value transition for that purpose. Our strategies are designed for compliance and tested in due diligences by investors.
  • Helping our clients to unlock internatioanl funding
  • In a first for any South African law firm, we’ve launched innovative support for our international structures by creating a verification solution endorsed by the UK Government’s Global Entrepreneur Programme. [ED7] [AD8] IPIncubator helps clients to demonstrate their compliance both with SA exchange controls and international tax law: both of which require minimum IP creation functions to be located offshore.  Our legal team combines genuine software engineer and legal skills to create transparent IP ledgers for our client’s offshore IP holding companies.
  • Scaling your business: our partnership with the UK government’s Global Entrepreneur Programme
  • A necessary evil for any international structure is to provide SARS with proof that the relationships between the network of connected (commonly owned) companies are fair and arm’s length.  This ultimately means that license fees, service fees and any other intercompany payments are comparable to what third parties would pay.
  • As part of our “turn key” solution to international structuring, our team has demystified this requirement and provides relevant transfer pricing analysis, fully supported by benchmarking to global data bases for peace of mind compliance.
