Who is it for?
Looking for a flexible and safe way to start a business? Then a private limited company (BV) is right for you. This legal form is currently the standard option for many entrepreneurs, from start-ups to growing SMEs.
A private limited company or BV is a legal entity, which means your business is legally separate from you as its founder. You are not personally liable for the company’s debts, unless there is gross negligence. As an entrepreneur, this provides you with additional protection and peace of mind.
A private limited liability company can be set up alone or with others. There is no minimum capital requirement, but you do need to start with sufficient initial capital – meaning enough resources to realistically launch your planned activities.
The private limited company combines flexibility with protection. You get to decide how profits are distributed, how decisions are made and how the company’s structure is organised.
Limited liability: your personal assets are protected
No minimum capital required
Full freedom in the articles of association (decisions, profit distribution, transfer of shares, etc.)
Suitable for both one-person businesses and larger company structures
Tax optimisation possible through salary, dividends and remuneration
A private limited company is an excellent choice for a variety of entrepreneurs:
Sole traders and consultants looking to limit their risk
SMEs with one or more founders
Growing businesses looking to attract investors
Entrepreneurs with a long-term vision
Starting or running a private limited company involves making decisions about articles of association, shareholders, remuneration, tax and much more. Our PIA accountants and advisory experts will be happy to guide you step by step. This way, you’re assured of a well-thought-out structure geared to your ambitions.
