Anonymous (or with nominee) company in Europe

But, once you request a nominee director and/or shareholder in Switzerland, there would be no provider wiling to offer services to you.
Do you have any experience with this ?
 
Also, if you are broke but have a good idea, maybe some Joe Doe wants to invest in you but without appearing anywhere. You then make him a silent partner.

In any case, the silent partner is never the one you need to find. It is always the official partner that you need to find.
I’ve studied the topic of silent partners a bit, and it’s quite common, even among companies that are only looking for capital rather than "smart capital." So the idea is good, but I can see that the intention here is the opposite, which makes it a smart approach for business owners who solely want to own the company to extract profits while leaving all management to a dedicated team.

I think he explained it very good already here

Dear all,

I need to get a company in Europe and I need that my name is hidden in both director and shareholder.
So I need an anonymous company or I need a nominee.
I don't need to run a black business or run a weird business, I just need to hide my name with competitor and other players in my business.
The business is completely legit and white (offering marketing services in B2B).
I need a bank account as well with EUR IBAN.

Where can I get this?
I know that Cyprus offers the nominee, but Cyprus is not fine.

I tried with SA company in Switzerland but fiduciaries don't reply to my emails, I don't understand the reason. It seems that they don't want to work with foreigners.

I don't want a country where there are troubles or too many paperworks. And I want to leave a small profit to pay low taxes.

Could you help me? Some ideas or tips please?
how you setup the company private? I'm try to find a good agent in Belize to help with bank account, what you found ?
 
Thanks for sharing this, really solid question and a situation I’ve seen more and more lately, especially with people offering B2B services who want to stay discreet without doing anything shady.

You’re right that Cyprus is no longer ideal for this kind of setup, especially if you're after true discretion and not just a paper nominee. Switzerland might seem good on the surface, but as others have mentioned, finding someone who’ll offer nominee services and still help with banking is almost impossible nowadays. Most serious banks will require a full UBO disclosure and supporting docs anyway.

If you're still looking within Europe, Spain might be an overlooked option. There are very niche structures where you can appoint nominees, both for director and shareholder and still maintain full control behind the scenes. Properly set up, it’s possible to include a functioning EUR IBAN bank account and operate entirely above board. But it needs to be done right and with the right local setup to avoid flags.
