as the largest financial center in Asia, Singapore's highly liberal policy on blockchain and virtual currency seems to be the most popular location for blockchain ICO projects in the world
What are the unique advantages of Singapore foundation in blockchain 8204; Many people like to register companies in Singapore, so what kind of companies do they sometimes register to do blockchain. The first company registered in Singapore is public company limited by guarantee, CLG. Unlike ordinary companies, they are non-profit and have no equity division. It belongs to the public guarantee type. We generally call it a non-profit foundation. Most people's names end with fund or foundation, which means fund and foundation. The ending will be like this: Foundation Ltd. / Fund Ltd.
here, I basically understand why I register overseas companies instead of domestic companies. Why do we choose Singapore to register in other places? Like Maltese, the United States, etc. As a matter of fact, Singapore has its unique advantages:
first, it is close to China and it is easy to operate anything
Second, the government supports the development of blockchain. Many well-known blockchain companies are registered here, including Laite coin. Quantum chains and so on
thirdly, the market is mature and the later service is perfect. Fourth, the price is reasonable and cost-effective
Singapore blockchain foundation registration and ICO compliance
Singapore companies or non-profit organizations are registered and managed by acra, and the non-profit foundation category is public
Company Limited by guarantee
the process is as follows:
1: the name of the blockchain foundation. Note that this is not an ordinary company. The ordinary company takes (PTE LTD) public non-profit foundation as
(Foundation Ltd)
2: provide at least 3 members, One of them is Singaporean (our company can provide)
3: registered capital of the non-profit organization is SGD 1, no share proportion (who can be authorized as the legal representative later)
4: registered address
5: lawyer and auditor guarantee of the new side
6: Secretary of the new side
7: registered member of the new side
registration time
15-20 working days (if the name is too sensitive, the time will be longer) < br/ >Registering a blockchain foundation is only the first step, and the next most important thing is compliance
the legal opinions needed by the stock exchange are actually a general term, which includes more emphasis on the white paper and token reporting, private
offering compliance, etc.
the white paper is also equivalent to our usual business plan, which needs to be modified by a professional Singapore lawyer after it is written, so that it can comply with the laws and regulations of Singapore
we write white papers for three purposes
First: report to MAS in Singapore, and you will not be afraid of being investigated in the future
Second, convince investors that the company is legal and compliant, and let investors feel at ease
thirdly, it needs to be used in the stock exchange
there are also token filing (non securitisation certification filing), and Singapore lawyers make MAS checks to prevent the monetary authority of Singapore
2: non profit organizations: laws and regulations do not allow indivials and companies to participate in the trading platform, but there are no prohibitive provisions on the investment objects of Foundations (non-profit organizations), so foundations can operate to raise funds to manage matters, and most projects have announced the establishment of foundations, In the past, investors may not understand the foundation, but now investors know it better than project owners. Therefore, the purpose of the foundation is obvious, and the actual registration is well documented and there are laws to follow
3: the foundation has no director or legal person - all expenses are spent in the name of the foundation, which can play a supervisory role and can not be traced back to the issuer. The company is established in the name of a group, and it is not someone who is doing this, so it reasonably avoids personal risks, and does not involve the responsible person of the lead
4. Reasonable tax exemption - since public welfare undertakings are only non-profit organizations and are not involved in collection, there is no tax worry, because no one will intervene
so how to register a foundation and what are the conditions? Take Singapore foundation as an example, not everyone can set up a foundation. For example, Singapore not only has clear requirements for the directors and shareholders of the foundation, but also has requirements for the registered address and registered capital of the foundation, The specific requirements are as follows: the process is as follows:
1: the name of the foundation. Note that this is not a company. The company is Foundation Ltd.
2: provide at least 3 members, one of whom is Singaporean.
(1) fill in the public welfare foundation (LTD) registration form
(2) fill in the name of Public Welfare Foundation (LTD): XXX Ltd
according to the relevant regulations of Singapore, the name of Public Welfare Foundation (LTD) must meet the market uniqueness, so it is better to give three public welfare foundation (LTD) names. Generally, the registration starts with the first name, for example, XXX Foundation Ltd. if the conditions are not met, the second name will be selected, and so on. If all of them can't be used, it's suggested to choose a new name
(3) fill in the operating business of Public Welfare Foundation (LTD): according to the relevant regulations of Singapore, each public welfare foundation (LTD) can register at most two operating businesses. Of course, one operating business is also allowed, because the Singapore government has stipulated various types of business. So you can provide the content of your own business, or let the agent help you choose a similar established business to register after confirmation.
the beneficiaries of public welfare organizations are not specific indivials and groups, and any indivial or group can accept their funding as long as they meet the requirements of their purpose and business scope. The fund of the foundation comes from the society and serves the society The regulations define the foundation as "a non-profit legal person established in accordance with the regulations for the purpose of engaging in public welfare undertakings by using the property donated by natural persons, legal persons or other organizations" The regulations stipulate that "the articles of association of the foundation must specify the nature of the foundation for public welfare, and shall not stipulate the contents benefiting specific natural persons, legal persons or other organizations", so as to distinguish the foundation from other trust and investment funds, fund management organizations for profit and other non-governmental mutual benefit organizations. Due to the public welfare nature of the foundation, the public offering foundation can raise funds from the public. The foundation's property must be protected and used for public welfare purposes The regulations stipulate that "the property and other income of the foundation shall be protected by law, and no unit or indivial shall privately divide, occupy or misappropriate it."“ The remaining property after the cancellation of the foundation shall be used for public welfare purposes in accordance with the provisions of the articles of association.
