From our Amsterdam base, we work directly with entrepreneurs, families and investors across the Benelux — and anchor the Dutch holding entity that sits behind the cross-border structures we coordinate from our other desks. This is home: we set up the Dutch holdings — with incorporation executed by a civil-law notary, and registered office, administration and substance arranged through the licensed providers each structure requires.
Structuring and coordination of the Dutch BV / holding from our Amsterdam base — incorporation executed by a Dutch civil-law notary — drawing on the participation exemption and the Netherlands' treaty network to anchor the wider European structure.
We coordinate ongoing administration, board and governance support and accounts — provided through licensed Dutch providers — and arrange registered presence and substance, keeping the structure credible and compliant.
We position the Benelux entity as the European hub the Spain/ZEC, Swiss and UAE desks connect into, coordinating the Luxembourg holding and financing layer where it adds value.
Structuring of European real estate and investment holdings for home-market clients, and coordination of capital and lenders alongside our Financing practice and licensed financing partners. Montclare is a structuring firm, not a bank or a licensed adviser.
The operational base — we handle it end-to-end.
We set up your Dutch BV and holding; the deed is executed by a notary.
We open your Dutch business bank account.
We prepare your KYC and source-of-funds file.
We arrange registered office and substance via licensed providers.
A founder-led international group preparing to expand abroad needed clean separation of personal ownership, group control, operating risk and future investment value, and wanted to test whether shares should sit directly with the founder or beneath a Dutch holding.
We advised on a scalable Dutch holding structure, helped define dividend flows, intercompany service agreements and management-fee logic on arm's-length terms, and reviewed participation-exemption treatment and governance — coordinating licensed providers and working alongside the founder's own counsel.
A defensible, scalable holding model under which future subsidiaries can be added without fragmenting ownership — supporting banking, capital introductions, dividend retention and operational risk separation, where conditions are met.
