Holding company accounting in the Netherlands

Group structures multiply the admin: more entities, more filings, more intercompany movements that have to agree. We keep the whole structure consistent.

The situation

Holding structures usually start simple and become untidy. Intercompany balances stop matching, management fees are charged inconsistently, and each entity is treated as a separate problem rather than part of one picture.

By the time annual accounts are prepared, reconciling the group takes longer than the accounting itself.

Typical examples

  • A personal holding above one or more operating companies.
  • A structure where management fees between entities need a consistent basis.
  • A group adding an entity and wanting the accounting set up correctly from the start.
