Foundations in the United Arab Emirates have emerged as a powerful legal and tax structuring tool for both corporate groups and individual entrepreneurs. While traditionally associated with succession planning in family-owned businesses, UAE foundations are increasingly recognised for their broader utility in corporate governance, asset protection, and long-term strategic stability—particularly within internationally active organisations.
This seminar will explore the current legal framework and tax treatment of UAE foundations, with a special emphasis on their growing relevance for German companies and business owners. The session will also address practical considerations such as transparency requirements, regulatory acceptance, and the interaction between UAE foundation structures and German legal and tax obligations.
Participants will gain actionable insights into how UAE foundations can be effectively leveraged to optimise both corporate structuring and private wealth management.
