    Background

    • Our Client is the investment manager for an African Master Fund and they are looking to set up a Feeder Fund in Delaware to onboard USA investors seeking investment opportunities through their Individual Retirement Account (IRA) and 401K account savings.
    • Our Client required end-to-end support to set up their Delaware Feeder Fund, including preparation of offering documents such as the Private Placement Memorandum and Subscription Agreement.

    Engagement planning

    • Our Client Engagements Manager had a detailed conference call with our Client, who initially considered setting up a Delaware Series 5 company to support their Feeder Fund structure for the African Master Fund.
    • Over the call, Apurv i) presented various corporate structures to our Client, recommending that a simple Delaware LLC company would meet their requirements, ii) explained the compliance and legal requirements for a business in Delaware and iii) explained how they could leverage the relationship with USA investors to secure a USA bank account.
    • Our Client was interested in proceeding with Healy Consultants Group’s recommendation. Apurv prepared and emailed our Client an engagement advancement proposal and the formal invoice including i) Delaware LLC set up, ii) USA corporate bank account opening, iii) preparation of offering documents and operating agreement and iv) tax registration.
    • Our Client promptly provided the requisite due diligence documents and settled our professional fee. Thereafter, we prepared a detailed Engagement Project Plan mapping out steps to engagement completion.

    Delaware company incorporation

    • Within one day, we confirmed the company name availability with the Delaware Registry, and once our Client finalised the corporate structure of the Delaware entity, our team initiated the company set up.
    • Within one week, the Delaware Registry approved the company registration and issued company numbers. Our Client’s company was, at this stage, legally allowed to conduct business internationally, including signing contracts with customers and issuing sales invoices.
    • We then emailed our Client the Delaware corporate documents including i) Certificate of Incorporation, ii) Statement of Authorised Person and iii) template of his Delaware company sales invoice.

    Preparation of operating agreement & offering documents

    • After securing the company numbers, we immediately deployed our panel of lawyers and paralegals to develop an Operating Agreement for our Client’s ‘Manager-managed’ Delaware Feeder Fund, as well as offering documents including i) Subscription Agreement and ii) the Private Placement Memorandum.
    • Healy Consultants Group’s affiliate lawyer, a specialist in the investment industry, reviewed the documents and ensured that the documents were aligned with the Securities Exchange Act of 1933 (USA), as well as making proper disclosure of the African Master Fund and associated risks.

    Escrow set up

    • Our Client communicated to Apurv that they had strict timelines to raise capital from their investors and requested to identify alternate solutions to enable the funds transfer to the African Master Fund. They could not wait up to four to six weeks to obtain the Tax ID and bank account number.
    • Apurv suggested that our team set up an escrow arrangement for our Client to transfer their funds to the African Master Fund.
    • Healy Consultants Group’s legal team prepared an escrow contract for our Client and introduced our Client to our preferred escrow attorney, who would assist our Client to transfer the funds from the USA investors to the African Master Fund.

    Employer Identification Number (Tax ID) registration

    • After immediately securing the company numbers, Healy Consultants Group, in parallel to the preparation of offering documents, had also applied for a Tax ID registration for our Client’s business with the Internal Revenue Services (USA).
    • Due to Covid-19 and an internal systems upgrade, Internal Revenue Services was not accepting expedited service requests. The department typically takes 45 working days to process Tax IDs for businesses with non-USA owners. Further, USA banks only review a bank account opening application for a USA business once the Tax ID has been allocated.
    • In the meantime, we continued to aggressively follow-up for our Client’s allocation after submission and manged to secure the Tax ID within five weeks.

    USA and African Bank Account Opening

    • Apurv shared a detailed feedback report with a list of USA and African banks that had been contacted and had shown interest in onboarding our Client’s business.
    • Over the next couple of weeks, Apurv connected with multiple USA and African banks and negotiated non-travel corporate account opening as per our Client’s preference. Among multiple other banking options, our team sourced a i) USA banking option which was an ‘FDIC Member’ and offered insurance of up to US$250,000 to protect our Client’s bank investments and ii) African banking option with which our Client was already banking for the Master Fund.
    • Once our Client approved to proceed with the above options, Apurv prepared corporate bank account opening forms and emailed the same to our Client for review and input.
    • Apurv then advanced the Client’s application with his preferred bank to avoid any delays. Due to the then prevalent Covid-19 pandemic and the lockdowns, Apurv secured multiple waivers with the bank, including supplying original notarised documents. Within four weeks, the bank sent the account numbers directly to our Client.
    • Within two weeks of receiving the account numbers, the bank activated our Client’s internet banking. Our Client could now access their bank account remotely from anywhere in the world.

    Personal tax filing

    • During the renewal engagement, our ATD team found out that our Client’s Delaware entity (a LLC with sole individual shareholder and director) who is a non-US persona, was required to file personal tax returns, while reviewing and examining our Client’s business activities and corporate structure.
    • Thus, our ATD team had suggested to our Client to engage Healy Consultants Group to file his personal tax returns.
    • Our Client agreed and settled an additional fee of US$3,050, which included applying for the Individual Taxpayer Identification Number (ITIN).
