Choosing the right structure
One of the first and most important decisions is selecting the most appropriate corporate structure for your business. We provide tailored advice on all available options under Greek law:
1
IKE - Private Capital Company
most popular for startups and SMEs – low capital requirements, flexible governance
2
AE (S.A.) - Corporation
suitable for larger businesses and listed companies
3
EPE - Limited Liability Company
traditional structure, suitable for mid-size operations
4
OE - General Partnership
unlimited liability, suitable for small professional firms
5
EE - Limited Partnership
mix of limited and unlimited liability partners
Each structure has different requirements in terms of capital, governance and liability. We make sure you choose the one that best fits your goals, timeline and budget.
