Shelf Companies

Completing the necessary formalities to enter a market in a new region is time-consuming. And without local support and expertise, the process can be frustrating and costly too.

Our shelf companies are carefully structured to facilitate a fast, efficient transfer of ownership and get your business up and running quickly. Investors can avoid unnecessary commitment while an acquisition, start-up or capital investment is under negotiation.

Our solution meets a broad range of needs. It's of particular value when the timing of market entry is critical, for example with company or real estate acquisitions.

We pioneered shelf company services back in 2004, offering the most commonly used forms of companies including Limited Liability Companies, Limited Partnerships, Limited Joint-Stock Partnerships and Joint-Stock Companies.

Cross-border challenges and opportunities in our new era of globalisation

Our latest Vistra 2030 report reveals globalisation is not dead but evolving. Against a backdrop of increased geopolitical tensions, trade wars, inflationary pressures and other disruptions, we’re seeing a shift away from a standardised, one-size-fits-all globalisation to a model that’s more complex and regionalised.

Why organisations are optimising to compete

Businesses and investors everywhere are facing significant economic and geopolitical headwinds. Russia’s invasion of Ukraine has helped fuel inflation and interest rate rises and led to soaring energy costs. Meanwhile, wide-sweeping digital transformation, trade wars, remote and hybrid working, and other emerging trends are accelerating change across the global economy. On top of these disruptions, the era of cheap borrowing is over and businesses and investors must find new ways to fund growth.

Experts predict continued global regulatory complexity: What it means for businesses and investors

Multinational businesses, investment firms, family offices and other organisations have been subject to an increasing number of country-specific regulations in recent years. We’ve seen new and updated rules related to anti-money laundering, economic substance, ESG and more.

ESG: Moving from agenda item to starting line

ESG has become a critical component of the new global economy as consumers and investors across industries demand that businesses meet new and emerging reporting criteria.

Cross-border business and investment in a new era of globalisation

Following the most turbulent period in recent memory, Vistra surveyed over 600 professionals and conducted 20 in-depth interviews to better understand the challenges today’s global businesses and investors face. The result is the tenth Vistra 2030 report. Simon Filmer, who heads Vistra’s company formation sector, calls the latest report “our most comprehensive look yet at how and why businesses, investment firms, regulators and the industry itself are adjusting to a new kind of globalisation.”
