Legal framework

of the investment

Even the best plans can end in major failures if they don't consider the legal framework in which they will operate. It's essential to examine all aspects to weigh possibilities and risks, thereby maximizing advantages and minimizing areas of uncertainty. SMI - Hotels & Resorts' services include the analysis and definition of the business structure, taking the following into account:

  • Activities carried out

Financial structure and capitalization

Financial aspects are often critical in business planning and execution. Consideration must be given to securing the necessary resources, balancing equity and debt, and the possibility of a future initial public offering (IPO); all with a view to two objectives: maximizing return on equity and maximizing brand value. Our company assists clients in the following areas:

  • Activities carried out
