Simplify Your Structure. Strengthen Your Governance.
Complex entity structures drain resources, hide risk, and slow strategic delivery. Rationalising them isn’t just smart, it’s essential.
Dormant and duplicate entities can expose your board to compliance failures and reputational risk.
Rationalisation helps regain control and restore trust in your group structure.
Entity structures evolve.
Acquisitions happen.
Local operations shift. Strategic priorities change.
But when legacy subsidiaries linger, they create more than admin headaches,
they create risk:
- Governance oversight stretched thin
- Dormant companies missed in compliance checks
- Obsolete directors, forgotten filings, unknown liabilities
- Time and money wasted on entities no longer serving a purpose
Many governance teams inherit tangled webs of legal entities, often across multiple jurisdictions, and are left without the resource or remit to clean them up.
Our Approach: Strategic Simplification
We work with governance leaders to simplify legal entity structures in a way that balances strategic goals, compliance realities, and operational disruption.
Here’s how we do it:
- Diagnostic & Mapping
We start with a review of your current entity structure, identifying overlaps, dormant companies, and hidden risks. - Risk-Based Rationalisation Plan
We create a prioritised roadmap to reduce entities, with supporting rationale, risks, and governance implications clearly outlined for boards. - Project Delivery
We execute step-by-step closures, transfers, and deregistrations, coordinating across internal teams, advisers, and registrars. - Project Delivery We design a framework to prevent reaccumulation, including approval thresholds and structural governance checks.
Whether it’s 10 companies or 300, we’ll help you reduce the noise and
refocus on what matters.
It’s time to simplify. Let’s make your structure work for the business, not against it.
