Go Global: Company Set up -Singapore, Hong Kong, UAE or UK?
Your business in Indonesia or elsewhere in the world is working, you are based in Bali. And now something big is on the horizon: an investor, a new market, a sale, or a move. The question every founder hits sooner or later: would a company or a holdco outside Indonesia help, and if so, where should it sit?
Join Osome for a practical session on one of the most expensive decisions a founder can get wrong: where your company should sit.
We compare Singapore, Hong Kong, the UAE and the UK on what matters in practice: how banks and tax authorities see each one, what each is best for, and what it costs to set up and run every year.
