Multi-jurisdiction holding company
Multi-jurisdiction holding structure with a Delaware corp, UK subsidiary, and Cayman growth fund — the first document in any M&A due diligence package.
For the M&A attorney
Scenario
An M&A attorney or corporate counsel draws this structure for a client engagement letter, board minutes, or due diligence data room. The entity diagram is the first document requested in any M&A transaction, debt financing, or regulatory review — it maps the corporate family tree with jurisdiction and ownership percentages.

How to read
The South Dakota founder trust owns 100% of the Delaware C-corp (the operating parent). The Delaware entity owns 100% of the UK subsidiary and 60% of the Cayman Islands fund (implying 40% external LP interest). This is a typical private equity or founder-led holding structure for multi-market operations.
