Substance

Start-up Hubs have become a phenomenon in most countries with their main objective being to provide work space and support for entrepreneurs, innovators, and small businesses.

ECONOMIC SUBSTANCE

To help meet substance requirements, Dixcart Business Centres are available in: Cyprus, Guernsey, Isle of Man, Malta, and the UK. Companies undertaking the following relevant activities are subject to economic substance requirements:

  • Banking
  • Distribution/Service Centres
  • Finance and Leasing
  • Fund Management
  • Headquarters
  • Holding Companies
  • Insurance
  • Intellectual Property Holding

These offer serviced offices and the availability of professional services.

Such services ranging from: company formation and accounting, through to introductions to key local contacts, can be invaluable for a business opening an office or branch overseas.

SUBSTANCE
LEGISLATION

Generally legislation in each jurisdiction introduces a three-stage process:

  • To identify companies carrying out “relevant activities”; and
  • To impose substance requirements on companies undertaking relevant activities; and
  • To enforce the substance requirements.
