Legacy Planning, Wills & Inheritance
In times of overstretched state budgets and growing deficits, it is not surprising that all major Tax Authorities take an increasingly ” closer look ” into inheritance matters nationally and internationally. Hence it is more and more important to enter into a creative inheritance planning as early as possible to keep most of the legacy to heirs.
We take into account not only cash deposits, real estate, intellectual properties and other investments, but also existing corporate assets, in the context of universal succession.
We offer comprehensive individual counselling, taking into account both EU-related as well as international issues.
In addition, we act as executors in international inheritance matters.

We see ourselves as independent consultants for, among other things, the long-term structuring of assets. We attach particular importance when creating an individual and intergenerational wealth strategy involving existing company structures and the family environment alongside with support to planning and execution of succession plans.
Please note that we would not do asset management itself as we are not specialized in and believe, others may do better. So we swapped this according to clients needs to appropriate banks and asset managers.
For our international clientele, we establish foundations and trusts at various locations, always taking into account your individual requirements and with the necessary expertise that you can expect.
Holding Structures
A holding structure is not legal form but a way to organize several companies and permanent establishments, on- and offshore in a certain way with each other using the same corporate parent.
Generally one can organize a holding structure differently – as a Management Holding, Financial Holding or Operational Holding whereas the first two forms are widespread and more common.
Often a holding structure makes sense to bundle business activities while creating synergy effects for the purpose of cost reduction. Speak to us to discuss possibilities for your family-run SME.
