When is a management company interesting?

What is a management company?

A management company is generally a company through which you invoice professional services to one or more clients or to other companies. Think of management, consultancy, IT, board-level services or financial services.

Is there a minimum profit level?

You often hear thresholds such as €50,000, €70,000 or €100,000 profit. Such a general threshold is too simplistic. Two entrepreneurs with the same profit can still face a completely different tax outcome.

When does the structure become more attractive?

When your profit rises structurally, when you do not need all of it privately right away, when you want to build reserves and assets, and when you think in the medium to long term.

Why are private cash needs so important?

If almost all profit has to be taken out privately immediately, there is less room to build reserves in the company. If you can leave part of the profit inside the company, more financial planning options arise.

How do you take money out of the company?

Money inside the company is not yet private wealth. You can pay yourself through management remuneration, expense reimbursements and dividends. For dividends, the VVPR-bis regime may under conditions offer a reduced rate of 18% for distributions from 1 July 2026, compared with the ordinary rate of 30%.

When is a company less interesting?

If profit is limited or uncertain, if you need nearly all income privately, or if the activity is only temporary, the extra administrative and accounting costs can weigh more heavily.
