Selected Matters

Selected Matters

Illustrative examples of how we support clients across relocation, structuring and long-term wealth matters.

Relocation Cyprus · Non-Dom

Relocation of a tech entrepreneur to Cyprus

Context

Founder of a SaaS company exiting a high-tax jurisdiction; needed personal relocation aligned with continuing operations across three countries.

Approach

Coordinated tax residency under Cyprus non-dom regime, restructured holding entity, sequenced asset transfers to preserve continuity.

Outcome

Residency obtained within the planned window; long-term effective tax position reduced; operating structure unchanged for clients and partners.

Wealth Structuring Liechtenstein · Foundation

Asset structuring via Liechtenstein foundation

Context

Multi-generational family with assets across four jurisdictions sought a single succession framework with clear governance.

Approach

Established a Liechtenstein family foundation with tailored statutes, asset migration plan and a coordinated banking and compliance setup.

Outcome

Unified governance achieved; succession framework documented; ongoing oversight delivered through a single coordinated point of contact.

Corporate Cyprus · Switzerland

Cross-border holding rebuild for an investor group

Context

Layered legacy structure no longer fit the operating reality; compliance burden was rising and substance was thin.

Approach

Designed a clean two-tier holding aligning operations with tax substance; sequenced unwind of legacy entities to preserve treaty positions.

Outcome

Compliance footprint reduced; substance documented; structure remains adaptable to future jurisdictional changes.

All cases are presented in an anonymised and simplified format.

How we think

Most advisory fails not because of lack of services — but because of lack of structure.

We do not approach relocation, corporate setup or investments as separate tasks. Instead, we design integrated frameworks where residency, legal structures and capital positioning work as one system.

Our focus is on building solutions that remain stable across jurisdictions, regulatory changes and time.

Structuring before executing

Aligning jurisdictions instead of layering them

Focusing on durability, not short-term gains

Keeping structures clear, compliant and manageable

We deliberately work with a limited number of clients. Because complexity requires attention — not scale.

If this approach aligns with your situation.

People

People behind the practice

A compact advisory team supported by a network of trusted legal, banking and structuring partners. We operate as a coordinated system rather than a fragmented set of providers.

"We design structures that endure — across borders, across generations, across change."

With over a decade of experience in cross-border advisory, Serge founded SPM Family Office to bring structure, clarity and continuity to international clients navigating complex jurisdictional landscapes.

COOKIE

Last updated: June 2026

1. Introduction

This Cookie Policy explains how S. Polivar Management LTD (trading as SPM Family Office) uses cookies and similar technologies on spm.family, what categories we use, and how you can control them. It should be read together with our Privacy Policy, which explains how we handle the personal data collected through these technologies.

2. What Are Cookies and Similar Technologies

Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They allow the site to recognise your device, remember your choices, and — where you consent — measure usage and support advertising.

We also use technologies that work in a similar way, collectively referred to as “cookies” in this Policy:

Pixels / tags — small pieces of code used to record activity (e.g. that a page was viewed or a conversion occurred);
Local storage — a browser mechanism used to store information on your device;
Software development kits and similar tools embedded by our analytics and advertising providers.

Cookies can be distinguished by duration — session cookies (deleted when you close your browser) and persistent cookies (remaining until they expire or are deleted) — and by origin — first-party cookies (set by spm.family) and third-party cookies (set by our service providers, such as Google and Microsoft).

3. Why We Use Cookies

We use cookies to: (a) make the Website function and remain secure; (b) remember your preferences; (c) understand how visitors use the Website so we can improve it; and (d) measure and optimise our advertising.

4. Legal Basis and Your Consent

In accordance with the ePrivacy Directive and the GDPR, strictly necessary cookies are set without consent because they are essential for the Website to operate. All other cookies — preferences, statistics/analytics and marketing — are set only on the basis of your prior consent (Article 6(1)(a) GDPR).

When you first visit the Website, our consent banner — provided by Cookiebot — asks you to choose which categories you allow. We use Google Consent Mode in Google Tag Manager, so analytics and advertising tags do not collect or transmit data until the relevant consent has been given. You can change or withdraw your consent at any time (see Section 7).

5. Categories of Cookies We Use

Strictly necessary — required for the Website to function (security, load balancing, and storing your cookie-consent choices). These do not require consent.

Preferences — remember choices you make (such as language) to provide enhanced, personalised features.

Statistics / Analytics — help us understand how visitors interact with the Website, on an aggregated basis, so we can improve it. Set only with your consent.

Marketing / Advertising — used to measure the effectiveness of, and to deliver and optimise, our advertising; and, where applicable, to build audiences. Set only with your consent.

6. Detailed List of Cookies

The tables below describe the principal cookies used on the Website. The authoritative, automatically updated list — including any cookies not shown here — is generated by Cookiebot and displayed via the Cookie Declaration (see Section 9).

All services are provided pursuant to a written engagement letter that defines the scope, terms and limitations of our work.

2. Not a Regulated Financial Institution

SPM Family Office is an independent advisory practice. We are not a bank, licensed investment firm, asset manager, law firm or insurance provider. We do not hold or manage client funds, and we do not provide regulated financial services as defined under MiFID II or equivalent legislation. Where regulated services are required, we coordinate with, and introduce clients to, appropriately licensed professionals in the relevant jurisdiction.

3. No Investment Advice or Solicitation

Nothing on this website, or in any general communication from SPM, constitutes investment advice, a recommendation, an offer, or a solicitation to buy or sell any financial instrument or to enter into any transaction. Any references to structures, jurisdictions or approaches are illustrative and general in nature, and do not take account of your individual circumstances.

4. Independence and No Undisclosed Compensation

SPM operates on a fee-for-service basis. We do not receive commissions, referral fees or undisclosed compensation from third-party service providers. All referrals to external counsel, banks or corporate service providers are made solely on the basis of professional judgement and the client’s interest.

5. Jurisdictional Scope

Our advisory services operate across Cyprus, Liechtenstein and Switzerland. Advice on legal and tax matters in these jurisdictions is provided in coordination with locally licensed legal and tax professionals. We do not hold ourselves out as providing jurisdiction-specific legal or tax advice independently of such professionals.

6. No Guarantee of Outcomes

All structuring and planning work is based on the law, regulation and administrative practice in force at the time of engagement. Laws and their interpretation change, and no guarantee is made as to the future treatment of any structure, residency status or tax position. Past results achieved for other clients are not indicative of future outcomes.

7. Forward-Looking Statements

Any forward-looking statements, projections or expectations referenced in our materials are inherently uncertain and subject to change. They should not be relied upon as a promise or guarantee of any future result.

8. Anti-Money-Laundering and Client Due Diligence

Where we accept an engagement, we are required to perform client due diligence and to comply with applicable anti-money-laundering (“AML”) and counter-terrorist-financing obligations. We may be required to obtain and verify identity and source-of-funds information before or during an engagement.

9. Conflict of Interest Policy

We maintain a formal conflict-of-interest policy. Where a potential conflict is identified, it is disclosed to the client before the engagement proceeds. Clients retain the right to seek independent advice at any stage.

10. Confidentiality

We treat all client information as strictly confidential and disclose it only as necessary to provide the services requested, or where required by law or regulation, in accordance with our Privacy Policy and applicable professional obligations.
