What structure in Germany do I recommend to protect my assets after years of work? [Reddit]

Answer

If you have already built up significant assets after years of effort, the usual approach is to consolidate them in a holding-type structure or asset-holding company that groups your assets together and separates them from day-to-day risk. That separation is precisely what protects the effort of all your years and prevents a business incident from wiping out what you have accumulated. Organising your assets in a well-configured vehicle also simplifies decisions, succession and the management of each asset. That framework only truly protects if it is kept alive and up to date with constant management.

It takes on its accounting and tax management every year, so that your assets remain protected, orderly and securely under control. Doing this in Germany has a setup cost from , a timeframe of 6-14 weeks and a corporate tax of IS 30-33%.
