The Dutch foundation, or Stichting (St.) as its known, has been a unique tool since its implementation in Dutch law in 1956. Being the structure of choice in the Netherlands and across Europe for decades, its use for financial institutions, business development, law firms, institutional investors, private equity, and memoranda firms has become more apparent. Although there are several other foundation models to be found in common law jurisdictions and Anglo-Saxon law trust vehicles that share some of its features, the unique Dutch foundation legal framework and its distinct characteristics make it a top choice for transactions involving orphan structures and is an important structuring instrument for the capital market.
