A Curaçao SPF can be a practical solution for clients seeking a private and stable structure to preserve wealth across generations.

The Curaçao Private Foundation, commonly known as the SPF, is often used by individuals, families and entrepreneurs as a private, passive holding vehicle for asset protection, estate planning and succession structuring.

An SPF has no shareholders or members. Its assets are legally separated from the founder’s personal estate and are managed in accordance with its articles, regulations and purpose. The SPF is generally used as a passive holding vehicle for shares, investment portfolios, real estate interests, intellectual property or other family assets, rather than for conducting an active business.

Key features:

• Legal separation of assets
• No shareholders or members
• Flexible governance and succession planning
• Suitable for passive asset holding
• Privacy, continuity and asset protection benefits
• Often used in family wealth and international estate planning
