Business, Investment & Personal Structures
It is essential for you to properly plan your business structure for entering a new venture. A major component of this planning needs to focus on selecting the right structure for your specific business and personal needs. Cleary Hoare understands the importance of these decisions and our specialisation in this area has led to the development of market leading new structures to accommodate the needs of our clients.
When choosing the correct structure, it is important to make sure that it has the following attributes:
- Retention and protection of the new or acquired assets.
- Isolation of the new venture risk from existing assets;
- Capacity to obtain the best taxation/revenue results;
- Flexibility;
- Simplicity.
Due to regular changes in legislation which affect the way you do business, Cleary Hoare suggests that the most important attribute of a structure is its flexibility, because a flexible structure will more often than not, lead to stronger asset protection and better taxation/revenue results.
