The choice of entity and the shape of the holding structure quietly determine how a business raises money, distributes profit, admits partners and eventually exits. I advise on those decisions before they harden — mainland or free zone, single entity or holding structure, what belongs in the constitutional documents and what belongs in a shareholders’ agreement — and then draft the governance that keeps decision-making clear once there is more than one voice in the room.
How I assist
- Entity selection and jurisdiction analysis — mainland, free zone and offshore
- Holding and group structures, including intra-group agreements
- Memoranda and articles of association, and constitutional amendments
- Shareholders’ agreements — reserved matters, transfers, deadlock and exit
- Board and committee governance, delegations and authority matrices
