SPV administration doesn't have to be complex, we make it a joy to work with.
Vauban is a Wealth Container Platform, we are specialised in simplifying the deployment and maintenance of complex legal entities like VC Funds and it making it accessible and controllable from our Dashboard.
Launching a VC Fund was traditionally an extremely cumbersome and expensive process filled with paperwork and wax seals that included many providers you had to handle and pay the hourly rate of like Lawyers, Notaries, Registries, Bankers and Administrators.
We have digitised and automated the process to make it accessible and save you time and money. Any action you take on Vauban is mirrored in Real Life but you don't have to worry about it.
Our pricing includes everything you need to launch your VC Fund: Set-Up, Structuring, Legal Documents, Bank Account, Administration, Corporate Secretarial.
What it does not include is the regulatory approval that may be required in your country as an investment manager.
We generally structure Venture Capital Funds as a Private Fund Limited Partnership. England is our preferred legal jurisdiction for various reasons including the speed and quality of its administration, the cost-efficiency of its registry, its reputation and its stability.
The PFLP (like most VC Funds) is a transparent vehicle, meaning the fund will not pay taxes in the UK. Investors will be taxed as if they invested directly in underlying companies.
During our online structuring process, you can play with more than 130 variables with each offering you many optional clauses to choose from. This is more than most lawyers would offer and enough to satisfy the most exotic claw-back requirements of your investors.
The way Vauban works is that when you change a variable, you'll see it instantly reflected on your Limited Partnership Agreement and Information Memorandum. This is extremely powerful because it allows your investors negotiations to take hours instead of months or years. This is also extremely secure: It ensures legal soundness, consistency and prevent drafting mistakes from happening (Which are nearly inevitable on Word when manipulating a complex 200 pages document.)
