Sample testimonial
"Set up the SOPARFI for our EU acquisitions roll-up. The participation exemption alone saved us ~€600K in year 1 vs. our previous Dutch BV holding. Real money from day one."
François Reuter
CFO · EU PE-backed roll-up
Sample testimonial
"IP-Box is real but not magical, substance matters. We have 8 Luxembourg engineers now. With them, the 4.99% rate is defensible; without, we'd have lost half the benefit on a tax review."
