The single EU legal framework provides a high level of protection of investors' funds and allows to fulfill requirements established by the MLI Convention and BEPS plan.
The Cyprus jurisdiction allows to significantly reduce fixed costs of running and maintaining the holding structure if compared to other popular European jurisdictions.
The programs, offered by the Republic of Cyprus to tax residents of Cyprus, allow to substantially lessen the tax burden on passive incomes and enable ultimate project beneficiaries (citizens of third countries) to freely use their capital funds within the EU and globally.
