01 · Check the fit

## When this service fits

### Everything sits in one company

Customer activity, token issuance, IP and treasury need to be examined separately.

### The group grew without a plan

You have several entities but unclear contracts, ownership or responsibilities between them.

### You are preparing for investment

Investors need to understand where the assets, rights and operating risks sit.

02 · What we can help with

## What the work covers

### Group structure map

Set out each holding company, operating entity, issuer and asset owner with a defined role.

### Asset and control review

Track IP, treasury, wallets, contracts and decision-making authority through the group.

### Document and implementation plan

Identify the agreements, ownership records and governance steps needed to connect the structure.

03 · How to get started

## What to bring

Start with what you have. These details help frame the first discussion.

Send the basics

- A group chart with owners and operating locations
- Key contracts and IP ownership records
- Token issuer, treasury and fundraising plans

Then define the scope

### Focus the first conversation on the decision you need to make.

Local law and tax advice may be needed in each relevant jurisdiction. The scope should identify who is responsible for that work.

05 · Common questions

## Common questions

Do I need more companies?

Not necessarily. The review starts with the roles and risks in your current business, then considers whether different entities are needed.

Can you work with a structure already in place?

Yes. The existing entities, ownership, contracts and assets provide the starting point for identifying gaps or unnecessary complexity.

Does this include tax planning in every country?

No. Cross-border tax questions must be scoped separately with the appropriate advisers before a structure is implemented.

## Does each company have a clear job?

Share the group chart and explain what you are trying to change or launch.
