IP Structuring and Protection

We implement robust legal and financial frameworks to protect your image rights and related IP. This includes the use of holding companies, trusts, and offshore entities to ring-fence valuable assets, ensure continuity, and support tax-efficient, multigenerational planning that shields your brand from commercial and legal risks.

Protecting your image rights is only the beginning—the real value lies in how those rights are structured. At SIPM, we create robust legal and financial frameworks that transform your identity into a secure, tax-efficient, and enduring asset. By combining intellectual property law with wealth management expertise, we ensure that your brand is protected today and preserved for future generations.

Why Structuring Matters

Athletes and celebrities often earn significant income from endorsements, licensing, and media appearances. Without proper structuring, this income can be heavily taxed, vulnerable to creditors, or lost due to poor estate planning. IP structuring shields your image rights from risk while maximising their commercial and financial potential.

Our Approach

• Holding Companies & Trusts: We ring-fence image rights within dedicated entities to provide legal protection and facilitate smooth licensing.
• Tax-Efficient Ownership: We design frameworks that reduce tax burdens while ensuring compliance across jurisdictions.
• Succession Planning: We integrate your IP into estate planning strategies, preserving value for heirs.
• Risk Mitigation: We build safeguards against litigation, bankruptcy, or reputational challenges.

Benefits for You

• Greater control over how your image rights are used and monetised.
• Reduced exposure to financial and legal risks.
• Multigenerational wealth preservation.
• A sustainable structure that grows alongside your career.
