Services
We offer the following services as the final aspect to our portfolio:
Fiduciary Services
If you are a shareholder of a small business start-up company (UG) or a limited liability company (GmbH) then your name will appear on the companies list of shareholders at the commercial registry as public information; the identity of a partner in a limited partnership is also registered with the commercial registry and is therefore reflected in any commercial registry excerpt. If you want to ensure confidentiality regarding the identity of a shareholder/partner, then holding shares or participations in a fiduciary capacity may be the option for you. Additionally, holding a stake in a company in a fiduciary capacity may provide accounting or tax benefits.
So, in addition, we offer fiduciary administration services in respect of stakes in companies. The exact terms and conditions of this fiduciary relationship will be tailor-made to meet your specific requirements.
Liquidation
The liquidation or a winding-up of a company requires the fulfilment of several formalities which are prescribed by law (e.g. a shareholder resolution, the appointment of a liquidator, notification of creditors etc.) and cannot, therefore, be immediately implemented. Naturally, we are also able to assist you in winding-up your company, and we offer several packages of liquidation services:
- Provision of liquidation administrators
- Our fixed-price purchase of your company to be wound-up
The fixed price we will pay to you is based upon the expected liquidation proceeds minus liquidation costs and our estimation of interest costs and receivable collection risk.
- Our flexible-price purchase of your company to be wound-up
Where likely liquidation proceeds and/or liquidation costs will be difficult to assess, our payment to you of a flexible purchase price for the liquidation of your company is the best option. The eventual price we pay will be based on an initial formula comprising the final liquidation proceeds minus the final liquidation costs, and the ultimate sum will be paid by us to you after completion of the liquidation process.
- Tailor-made solutions
It’s also possible to go with a combination of these options. For example, it could be optimum that we purchase your company to be wound-up with the acting managing director appointed as liquidation administrator. This would mean that you could continue to use his experience and skill to ramp down the operation; as soon as the ramp down has been largely completed, you would substitute the incumbent managing director by a liquidation administrator provided by SCUR24 to conclude the liquidation process. Normally, we are able to provide a liquidation administrator for a lower cost compared to the former managing director.
We are proud in offering a tailor-made solution to the winding-up of your company.
Interim company management and administration services
The provision of an interim managing director is required where a managing director is taken ill or is removed at short notice, and a replacement cannot be recruited at short notice. The appointment of an interim managing director could also be required between signing and closing of the relevant transaction.
The appointment of an interim managing director is always on a fixed term basis, hand-in-hand with a respective indemnification from the shareholders. Our service fee is calculated on a case-by-case basis, taking into account expenses and the risk exposure of the interim managing director.
