The Shift Towards Multi-Jurisdictional Corporate Structuring Traditionally, businesses operated in a single jurisdiction with a clear regulatory framework. However, with advancements in technology, digital payments, and remote workforce integration, many companies are now looking beyond their domestic borders for tax optimization, investor protections, and operational efficiency. Arixas Global Advisory has worked closely with businesses to develop strategic solutions for: Corporate Redomiciliation – Helping businesses move their legal domicile to more favorable jurisdictions. Hybrid Entity Formation – Structuring companies using a combination of offshore and onshore entities to optimize tax benefits. Digital Corporate Management – Implementing remote governance solutions using blockchain-based smart contracts for secure and efficient corporate decision-making. Case Study: Expanding a European FinTech Firm into Latin America In mid-2018, a leading European FinTech company approached Arixas Global Advisory for assistance in expanding its operations into Latin America. The company needed a structure that would allow it to:

  • Comply with local financial regulations in Brazil and Argentina.
  • Minimize corporate tax exposure while maintaining legitimacy.
  • Secure international banking partnerships for cross-border payments.

  • Arixas developed a three-tier corporate structure involving:
  • An onshore subsidiary in São Paulo, Brazil to meet financial regulatory requirements.
  • A holding company in the Netherlands for European tax efficiency.
  • A service entity in Belize to facilitate international financial operations.

This model provided the company with full regulatory compliance while benefiting from a tax-optimized structure that ensured sustainable growth in Latin America.
