What type of ownership-structure provider is this?
Private wealth, fiduciary and real-estate structuring. Confirm which legal entity actually provides the corporate, fiduciary, accounting or tax-related service in the relevant jurisdiction.
Who it may suit
Equiom may be relevant to Private clients, families, family offices, HNW investors and advisers.
Where can the provider establish or administer structures?
Multi-jurisdiction capability — confirm the relevant property jurisdiction and entity or fiduciary jurisdiction directly.
Which ownership vehicles can the provider support?
Trusts, holding companies, SPVs and other private-wealth real-estate holding vehicles. Availability depends on jurisdiction and client circumstances.
Personal ownership or company ownership?
Published personal and company capability: Strong. Personal ownership is simpler legal ownership, with its own tax and succession outcomes. Company ownership separates the owner from the legal property owner and adds corporate administration. This page does not say which is better.
SPVs and holding companies
SPV and holding-company capability: Strong. A single-property company, a parent and subsidiary arrangement, directors, shareholder records, accounts, lender requirements and distributions are separate questions. An SPV is not described here as a tax outcome.
Trust and foundation ownership
Trust and foundation capability: Strong. A trustee or foundation council can hold legal title while beneficiaries or a family retain the economic interest. Governance, succession, reporting and local recognition differ from company ownership.
A trust or foundation should not be used merely because property is international. See trusts.
Cross-border property ownership
Cross-border capability: Strong. Property location, owner residence, entity jurisdiction, directors, beneficial ownership, accounts, tax filings, financing, estate planning and distributions can each sit in a different country.
Governance and decision-making
Governance: Strong professional governance and administration. Directors, trustees or a foundation council, decision records and signing authority are part of the structure. This does not mean directors are supplied in every jurisdiction.
Accounts, reporting and administration
Strong ongoing documentation, reporting and administration. Bookkeeping, annual accounts, entity filings, beneficial-ownership records and family or investor reporting are ongoing obligations. Only the scope named here comes from published material.
Can the structure be financed?
Debt structuring support within wider real-estate solutions. Lender compatibility, refinancing, the borrower entity and any guarantee are separate from the ownership choice. Ownership structuring and financing should be reviewed together before implementation.
Property finance is the lending comparison.
How the structure interacts with succession
Succession integration: Exceptional. Death, incapacity, shares, beneficiaries and who can instruct a sale are part of the same arrangement as the title.
See estate planning and succession.
How tax and legal advice is coordinated
Direct and indirect tax compliance and advisory, plus adviser coordination. Corporate administration, fiduciary services, legal advice and tax advice may be provided by different entities.
Which property types can the provider support?
High-value residential, luxury real estate and commercial real estate. A property type is listed only where the published material names it.
How ownership-structure fees are usually charged
Pricing model: Engagement-specific. Formation, registered office, directors, trustee or fiduciary fees, accounting, tax compliance, corporate secretarial work, beneficial-ownership filings and structure closure can be charged separately.
