CEE DESK

Central & Eastern Europe into the EU core

We channel capital from across Central and Eastern Europe into EU-grade Dutch and Luxembourg holding structures — bankable, treaty-backed and recognised inside the European Union.

HOW WE HELP

What this desk delivers

EU Holding Base

We structure Dutch and Luxembourg holdings that give CEE capital an EU-grade home, structured so that, where conditions are met, qualifying dividends and gains may benefit from the participation exemption.

Bankability & Substance

We coordinate the registered presence and real economic substance — office, governance support and reporting, provided through licensed local providers — designed to help the structure stand up to scrutiny and earn lender and counterparty confidence within the EU.

Treaty & Capital Access

We position the holding to draw on the EU directives and the Dutch and Luxembourg treaty networks, opening efficient routes for capital, dividends and reinvestment across the Union.

European Asset Deployment

We structure and coordinate the holding's investment into Western European real estate and portfolios, with financing arranged alongside third-party lenders. Montclare coordinates the structure; it is not a bank or a licensed adviser.

SELECTED MANDATE

How we have helped in this region

International services group · Netherlands–Poland market entry
SITUATION

A founder-led services group sought to establish itself across the Netherlands and Poland, needing institutional credibility and local standing rather than cold outreach into an unfamiliar CEE market.

WHAT WE DID

We advised on cross-border positioning and helped define the public-facing narrative, coordinating introductions through chambers of commerce and business networks. We reviewed corporate and tax implications where activity, management and service delivery could split between countries, alongside the client's own advisers.

OUTCOME

A more credible market entry path, supported by institutional visibility and commercial introductions, with transfer pricing flagged as a future requirement should operating entities arise in both markets.

Anonymised mandate — client identity and figures withheld for confidentiality.
