Before you launch: How to choose your SPV and fund jurisdiction
Where your SPV or fund is set up shapes almost everything that follows: which investors can come in, how they're taxed, what the regulator expects of you, how much you spend each year, and how clean your exit is. Yet most syndicate leads and first-time managers pick a jurisdiction because a lawyer suggested it, a peer used it, or it looked cheapest. In this 45-minute session, Auptimate CEO Olivier Too walks through three real-world scenarios, one each in Singapore, the Cayman Islands and Delaware, and shows why each deal landed where it did. You'll leave with a simple framework you can apply before your next vehicle goes live.
What we'll cover:
The five questions to answer before you pick a jurisdiction
Singapore: when a regional deal with Asia-based investors belongs close to home
Cayman: why global LPs and offshore-structured startups often point here
Delaware: what changes when you're backing a US company, especially with non-US investors
The costly mistakes we see most often, and how to avoid them
Who should attend: Syndicate leads, angel investors and fund managers planning their next SPV or fund, and anyone who wants to get the structure right before money moves.
Your host: Olivier Too, CEO of Auptimate. Olivier works with syndicate leads, angels and fund managers across Asia and beyond to set up and run investment vehicles across multiple jurisdictions.
Free resource: Every attendee gets our SPV Jurisdiction Toolkit, a side-by-side guide to Singapore, Cayman and Delaware.
