Two ways in. One properly governed outcome.
Whether your immediate need is offshore protection or a South African ownership solution, both lead to the same disciplined, governed structure.
The two ways in, and the one that connects them.
The first two are entry points, and they carry equal weight; which one applies to you is a matter of what is urgent, not of which is more important. The third is what we build when both are.
-
Offshore Ownership Architecture
Take part of what you have built beyond South Africa’s borders, protected, governed, and structured for real family optionality.
-
South African Ownership & Compliant Funds
Solve an ownership or compliance requirement properly, without unnecessary dilution and without losing control.
-
Integrated Architecture
When you need South African and offshore structuring at once, built as one structure rather than two projects side by side.
Two more, which are not doors.
One is a moment in a founder’s life rather than a route in; the other applies to every structure we build, whichever way you came in. Both matter, and neither is a third entry point.
-
Business Sale & Transfer
Preparing the ownership structure and the business before a sale or a handover, alongside your broker rather than instead of them.
-
Governance
The retainer that keeps any of the above defensible in year seven: calendars, records, evidence and an annual review with a written output.
Whichever route you take, the work has the same shape.
We read the full picture before proposing anything, design the architecture to fit what we find, and govern it afterwards so it stays defensible.
Not sure which page you should be reading?
Then start with the situation rather than the solution. Or say what is on your mind and we will tell you which of these applies, including if the answer is none of them.
