Business problem

We are restructuring or creating a holding company

Restructures are usually driven by risk separation, investment or an eventual sale. Getting the sequencing right avoids unnecessary tax charges and stamp duty.

2,200 SRA-regulated firms match this type of work.

What this usually involves

  • Share for share exchanges and holding company insertion
  • Hiving down trade and assets between group companies
  • Coordinating clearances with your accountants

Common questions

Why insert a holding company?
It can ring-fence trading risk, hold property or IP separately and simplify a later sale of one part of the business.
How long does a restructure take?
Simple reorganisations take a few weeks; anything needing tax clearances usually takes longer.
