Introduction to Corporate Groups

Firmengruendung.de 0 3904

Building a corporate group (English: Group) means distributing business risks and/or profit centers across various (subsidiary) companies. It also allows for a clear separation of business units. One of the classic models is certainly the division of the company into holding and operating companies. In addition to the marketing benefits of a corporate group, this setup can reduce risks, increase discretion, and optimally manage market appearances.  

It is no coincidence that larger companies have always utilized the possibilities of forming groups or holdings. 

However, for small businesses, the formation of a corporate group with German companies, while highly recommended on a case-by-case basis, has often been too cumbersome.  

Here, the UG (or possibly the Limited) can play to its strengths: For manageable incorporation costs, almost any conceivable configuration can be quickly and cost-effectively established.
