Foundations

Astria Advokater have for many years worked with foundations as a special area of interest. 

Foundations are obliged to work towards specific purposes. Foundations are the responsibility of the Board of Directors and are subject to supervision by authorities. 

Among other things, we advise on:

  • Setting up foundations and independent institutions

  • The choice of organisational structure

  • Board work

  • Rules applicable to the capital structure of foundations and self-governing institutions

  • Questions concerning grants

  • Dissolution and amalgamation of foundations and independent institutions

  • Amendments to the Articles of Association and extraordinary dispositions

  • Administration
