Asset protection

Preservation of corporate assets is one of the most recent issues for founders and managers of companies, given the complex market, political and economic processes in the country. In order to protect the firm’s property from unstable business environment and actions of third parties, assets should be restructured in advance.

Capital preservation can be achieved by creating favorable development conditions and drawing up a competent business plan. A responsible approach to the distribution of the company’s value reduces the risk of capital loss, but also allows to control the activities of the enterprise and receive income from it.

The main task of the company manager is to structure the existing assets, shifting the risks from a particular organization to an individual or other entity that is less threatened by an unfavorable situation. Corporate assets should be isolated from those factors in the business environment that could harm the company’s operations.

What risks can a company be protected from?

Factors that may affect the safety of a company’s property and capital:

Fraud and criminal intent. It is difficult to insure against intruders who are willing to falsify documents and organize illegal takeover of a company. Even in the presence of evidence and a criminal case, it can be very difficult to restore justice and protect assets.

Problems with state authorities. Quite often an obstacle to the successful operation of the company are claims from official organizations of the country, for example, mistakenly issued large tax and customs invoices that do not correspond to reality. Corruption is also one of the most common problems. It is possible to protect corporate property in court, but the active process involves additional expenses and takes a lot of time.

Confrontation with customers, competitors and bankruptcy. Business property protection is necessary in the event of disputes over intellectual property rights, collection of compensation or other claims from customers. Counterparties go to court to settle the situation, and the company may lose a large share of capital or property as a result.

Disputes with business partners. Having multiple co-founders in a firm always carries a risk regarding the division of corporate property. Even if the situation is resolved amicably, the business itself may suffer due to mismanagement during the dispute resolution period.

Inheritance issues. The successors of the owners, as well as members of their families, may claim a share of the company. Due to disputes between relatives, a part of the company’s shares may become a bargaining unit and be put up for sale. Years of litigation proceedings threaten the company’s operations, so it is important to provide effective protection for the company against successors and former spouses in advance.

Insider fraud and lawsuits. Company property can also be at risk if it is targeted by corporate criminals. This category of risk involves employee bribery, disclosure of confidential information, and lawsuits. By contacting Alt-industry, you can count on competent legal assistance and a customized business development plan with asset protection.

Principled Strategies

Protecting corporate capital involves selecting one of the existing strategies that are effectively applied in modern jurisprudence to minimize risk:

  • Legal division
    Assets are divided and transferred to entities that involve less risk. For example, irrevocable trust structures, wealth management funds, or corporations.
  • Encumbrance
    To protect, a company’s property is “devalued.” For example, the firm’s property is pledged to a trusted legal entity.
  • Confidential Ownership
    The use of effective schemes that protect the identity of a company’s beneficiary, such as issuing bearer shares that do not identify the owner.
  • Insurance
    Applying a range of contracts, including prenuptial agreements, which protect company property from third party encroachment.
