What is the advantage of setting up a holding structure?

A holding structure makes it easier to manage several companies under a single roof, to organise ownership relationships, and to segregate risk among the companies. It can also streamline decision-making and financing processes at the group level. However, because each structure has its own legal and tax consequences, the arrangement must be designed to fit the company.
