Family offices can in many ways act like a private equity fund and therefore much of the same need. They therefore also appreciate having full control and easy access to their own portfolio.
In contrast to what private equity funds normally have, family offices can have an eternal perspective on certain investments. Having a full company history of all investments therefore has particular value.
Family offices may also need to withdraw dividends from that company to the underlying owners. Having full control over what is contributed capital can therefore be of value since this can normally be repaid without dividend tax being calculated.
Several family offices have also established share investment programs for employees (MIP) in companies in which they have invested. They can therefore greatly benefit from using the best practice that dCompany has prepared for such programmes:
- The shareholder book gives full control over the history of the individual participant, including the historical cost price and paid-in capital of the shares owned by the employees.
- If an employee quits, it is no longer necessary to spend time finding out what the cost price of the individual’s shares is. And in the event of an exit, it is easy to find the cost price and the time of acquisition to be able to calculate any tax (relevant for employees who do not invest through the company).
- And if the proceeds from the exit come as dividends, there is easy access to what has been paid in capital per share, so that this amount can be repaid tax-free.
- Participants in the investment program get access to their individual shareholder page, where it is shown, among other things, how many shares they own and where the transaction history is shown.
- On the shareholder side, the company can also publish the tax asset value of the shares so that this is easily accessible to everyone. And if it is desired to disclose the market value, this can be disclosed.
- Through a shared folder in the archive, the company can also publish information that it is desirable to share with the shareholders through the shareholder pages.
dCompany also assists family offices and the companies they have invested in with, among other things:
- My Portfolio: Easy access to each of the relevant portfolio investments through My Portfolio, regardless of the nationality of the investment.
- Company map : Overview illustration of all the companies in a group with an indication of ownership shares.
- Owner map : Overview of the ownership right up to the underlying personal shareholders through a shareholder map.
- Shareholder’s book : A user-friendly shareholder’s book that gives control over the shareholders and which shares they own, including historical cost price and paid-in capital per share. stock.
- Transaction module : Simple registration of new transactions in the shareholder register, whether the management is carried out by the company itself or an adviser. Automatic generation of transaction log showing all company events and transactions with details for each of these.
- Digital articles of association : Digital articles of association that ensure that everyone who works with the company always has access to the latest version, including any advisors who have been given access to the platform
- dBot : Digitized and automatic processes for carrying out capital increases, capital reductions, conversion of shares and around twenty other company law processes.
- Shareholder register task : Submission of the shareholder register task directly from the platform through a few clicks and without the need to repeat information recorded when updating the shareholder register.
Some companies like to do everything themselves. Others like to outsource most things to advisers. The dCompany platform gives you full flexibility for both options in that it is possible to invite advisers in as administrators on the platform.
