Luxembourg offers a range of specialised investment vehicles designed to provide tax efficiency, flexibility, and robust asset management for families, corporations, and investors
In today’s complex financial landscape, selecting the right investment vehicle is crucial for optimising asset management, protecting wealth, and achieving long-term financial goals. At Meridien International, we specialise in establishing and managing a variety of sophisticated investment vehicles tailored to meet the specific needs of families, entrepreneurs, and institutional investors. Our expertise covers a wide range of structures, including Family Wealth Management Vehicles, Private Holding Companies, Special Purpose Vehicles, and specialised partnerships such as Société en Commandite Simple and Société en Commandite Spéciale.
Family Wealth Management Vehicle
A Family Wealth Management Vehicle is designed to preserve and grow family assets across generations. It provides a structured approach to consolidating investments, managing tax efficiencies, and ensuring a smooth transfer of wealth. These vehicles often offer flexible governance frameworks, allowing families to maintain control while benefiting from professional management and protection against external risks. We assist in setting up bespoke family vehicles that align with your wealth preservation strategy and legal requirements.
Private Holding Companies
Private Holding Companies serve as an effective means to consolidate ownership of operating companies, investments, or real estate assets under a single corporate umbrella. These entities enable efficient management of diversified portfolios, facilitate succession planning, and can provide significant tax advantages depending on jurisdictional considerations. Meridien International supports the formation and ongoing administration of private holding companies, ensuring compliance with local and international regulations and helping you maximise operational efficiency.
Special Purpose Vehicle (SPV)
Special Purpose Vehicles are dedicated entities created for specific investment projects or transactions. SPVs isolate financial risk by separating the assets and liabilities of a particular investment from the parent company. Commonly used in real estate, structured finance, and securitisation, SPVs provide transparency, risk containment, and ease of management for complex deals. Our team specialises in structuring SPVs that meet regulatory standards and investor expectations, ensuring clarity and security throughout the investment lifecycle.
Société en Commandite Simple (SCS)
The Société en Commandite Simple is a popular limited partnership structure used across various European jurisdictions. It combines general partners who manage the partnership and have unlimited liability, with limited partners whose liability is confined to their capital contribution. The SCS offers flexibility in governance and profit distribution, making it attractive for private equity funds, real estate investments, and joint ventures. Meridien International provides expert guidance on forming and operating SCS entities, tailoring the partnership agreement to suit your commercial and regulatory needs.
Société en Commandite Spéciale (SCSp)
The Société en Commandite Spéciale is a specialised limited partnership often preferred for private equity and alternative investment funds. It shares many characteristics with the SCS but offers enhanced confidentiality and flexibility in governance and investor relations. The SCSp is frequently chosen for its tax transparency and ability to accommodate diverse investor types. Our experts assist in setting up SCSp structures with meticulous attention to legal compliance and operational efficiency, ensuring that your investment vehicle is optimally positioned for growth and investor confidence.
