Cross-Border IP HoldingUK-EU Corporate StructuringWithholding Tax Optimization

Background and Experience

Marcus Thorne founded Trishati in November 2018 after working for 11 years in corporate tax compliance in London. He noticed that UK tech firms consistently struggled with 15% withholding taxes when selling software to European clients. He set up this firm to build clear corporate holding routes. We structure for safety, not just tax cuts.

Proven Structuring Process

Let's look at the numbers. Marcus has personally guided 83 UK founders through establishing European holding entities. The average structure takes exactly 34 days to complete from first filing to final local tax ID. (We usually prefer doing this before your Series A round closes to avoid valuation issues.)

How Marcus Helps Your Team

No complex legal jargon here. Marcus manages the legal transfer of software code and IP. In 2023, he coordinated 14 separate asset transfers to Ireland and Germany without triggering UK capital gains tax. He communicates directly with your internal finance director to keep filings aligned.

Our 3-Step Timeline

Here is our 3-step timeline that Marcus uses for every new client group. First, we complete a 2-hour structural audit of your UK equity. Second, we deliver a written step-plan with tax impact calculations. Third, we register your new European subsidiary and handle the local compliance filings.
