In addition to tax advantages, foundations in Liechtenstein are attractive for many other reasons. In a dialogue with Prof. Dr. Dr. Gierhake, Christoph Juhn discusses the details of setting up a foundation in Liechtenstein and the tax implications of transferring the foundation's assets. Above all, however, the focus of the discussion is on the establishment of independent bodies that give shape to the founder's ideas about the purpose of the foundation and preserve them in his spirit. ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ 0:00 Introduction & presentation 1:40 Characteristics of the foundation and its founders 6:40 Tax peculiarities 8:20 Asset areas of a foundation 9:40 Taxation of profits 10:52 Legal peculiarities 17:53 Advantages of the Liechtenstein foundation 21:21 Asset protection 33:00 Liechtenstein foundation in practice 42:20 Foundation management 54:00 Book tip: Protecting assets with confidence 55:45 Summary & contact ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ Our blog post about the foundation in Liechtenstein: https://www.juhn.com/fachwissen/inter... ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ Your direct contact: Telephone: +49 221 999 832-01 Email: [email protected] ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ Prof. Dr. Dr. Olaf Gierhake is a member of the Board of Directors of Vermögensschutz Gierhake AG in the Principality of Liechtenstein (www.vermoegensschutz.info).
