Once listed, your holdings become public. And your position can no longer be rewritten.

• The company is heading for an IPO or a direct listing, and you are a founder with a large stake.
• After the listing your stake becomes public, liquid and visible to all.
• Your personal residence, holding structure and reporting are not yet aligned to public life.

What the House does

The House prepares the founder’s personal side for public life in advance: residence for future share sales, a holding structure and reporting that, once listed, are too late and too conspicuous to change.

• Personal residence aligned to future share sales and lock-up periods.
• A holding structure: a holding company, trust or foundation before the stake becomes public.
• Planning sales after the lock-up, accounting for residence and timing.
• A tax and reporting position compatible with public life and disclosure.
• Aligning the personal structure with the corporate preparation for listing.

What you get: a holding structure (holding company / trust / foundation) before the listing · residence aligned to post-lock-up sales · a sales plan with timing · a tax position compatible with disclosure.

Why this way and not another

• The IPO team prepares the company for listing, but not the founder’s personal position.
• After the listing, any change to the holding structure becomes public and conspicuous.
• Residence not put in place before the IPO cannot be quietly changed for future share sales.

What worries you — and the House’s answer

• “After the IPO I won’t be able to change anything.” — That is why we build the personal position before the listing, while the stake is private.
• “Sales after the lock-up will be taxed to the hilt.” — Residence and the timing of sales are planned in advance, for the coming liquidity.
• “Rebuilding the structure will surface in disclosure.” — The structure is set in order before public life and designed to be compatible with disclosure.

Where this leads

By the listing your personal position is ready: residence is in place, the holding structure assembled, post-lock-up sales planned. Public life does not catch you off guard — what cannot be changed after the IPO has been built in advance. The stake goes to market, and your side is settled.
