	Holding Company
		Company profits are often subject to 'double taxation'- taxation first in the hands of the company which has earned or received the profits and again when the company distributes profits to shareholders.

		Such holding companies are often used for holding real estate as investments in countries such as the United Kingdom.

		Holding companies can be useful whether established in certain onshore jurisdictions or offshore jurisdictions and there is a distinction between those used for commercial collection and routing of dividends and those for holding private property.
