Our Services for Silent Partnerships
Trusted Investment Through Strategic Silence
At Montclare Capital Partners, we specialize in creating and managing silent partnership structures (stille vennootschappen) that allow capital providers to invest in private ventures without active involvement. Whether you’re a high-net-worth individual, a family office, or an international investor seeking a low-visibility strategy in the Dutch or European market, silent partnerships offer a discreet and flexible solution.
What Is a Silent Partnership?
A silent partnership is a legal arrangement in which one party (the silent partner) contributes capital to a business while another (the managing partner) operates it. The silent partner does not appear publicly and shares in profits without taking on day-to-day responsibilities or reputational exposure.
Our Silent Partnership Services Include:
I. Drafting partnership agreements with clear rights and obligations.
II. Choosing between informal arrangements or registration-based formats.
III. Integration with Dutch BV structures or international holdings.
I. Silent partner protections: veto rights, exit clauses, and profit ceilings.
II. Due diligence on managing partners and operational risks.
III. Regular reporting protocols tailored to partner preferences.
I. Ensuring compliance with Dutch and international tax regimes.
II. Optimizing profit distribution and dividend flow.
III. Aligning with fiscal rulings when applicable.
I. We assist in structuring silent partnerships within the EU, Latin America, and select African and Asian markets.
II. Local advisors ensure legal compatibility, enforceability, and cultural fluency.
I. Passive investors seeking long-term private exposure.
II. Foreign investors exploring local opportunities without creating subsidiaries.
III. Entrepreneurs seeking non-intrusive capital.
IV. Family offices investing under the radar.
A Spanish-Dutch family office wanted to back a boutique hospitality project in Florence while remaining anonymous. Montclare structured a silent partnership with veto rights, capped liability, and quarterly reporting. The managing partner ran operations while our client retained oversight and shared in profits. Their identity was never disclosed, even during acquisition and expansion.
Why Montclare?
I. Discretion is not a feature — it’s a foundation.
II. Our multilingual team bridges legal, fiscal, and cultural gaps.
III. We combine Dutch structuring expertise with global reach.
