With our experience, we support your family and charitable foundations in achieving their goals while meeting all requirements efficiently and in compliance with regulations. We understand the unique challenges of establishing and managing foundations in Germany and other jurisdictions.
We take care of your ongoing legal and tax obligations, such as asset bookkeeping, maintaining evidence of timely use of funds, year-end work, and tax returns. We guide charitable foundations in questions about their asset and income structures in light of their mandated charitable purpose and the requirement for timely fund deployment.
Sometimes personal goals or external conditions change. A foundation’s charter is not freely amendable. However, with a solid foundation process, the charter can include clauses that allow for future adjustments. Moreover, thanks to our practical experience and regular contact with foundation authorities, we are well-equipped to advise on post-formation foundation reorganizations and amendments to the charter.
