Our Joint Venture and Partnership Services

Structure, Vehicle Selection and Setup

Joint ventures in Cyprus most commonly take the form of contractual arrangements, partnerships, corporate vehicles or European Economic Interest Groupings (EEIG).  Our advisors help you choose the optimal structure, align liability and tax treatment, and implement the vehicle accordingly. 

Joint Venture Agreements and Governance

We draft and negotiate key documents including shareholder or partnership agreements, articles of association, operating agreements, and management protocols. We design governance frameworks that deal with decision-making, deadlocks, minority protection and board composition.

Financing, Contributions and Asset Transfers

We advise on capital contributions, asset transfers, financing arrangements, security, licensing of intellectual property and tax-efficient structuring relevant to joint ventures. Each contribution is reviewed for compliance, risk and alignment with the venture’s objectives.

Operational Management, Compliance and Exit Planning

We support clients during the operational life of the alliance, advising on compliance, performance monitoring, governance reviews, dispute resolution mechanisms and exit or dissolution strategies. Our goal is to maximise value and minimise disruption when the venture ends or transitions.

Why Choose Cyprus as a Joint Venture Location?
