Working promise
The Decision Canvas compares direct ownership, shared rules, a contractual familiefonds and a stichting/STAK/corporate route, including a no-fund outcome.
Formal documents are not offered as open templates. They are prepared or confirmed by the Dutch civil-law notary, lawyer, tax adviser or foreign counsel within their own remit.
