In the international arena, an opportunity is only valuable if it can be acted upon.
About ICARUS INVESTMENT
Expanding a business beyond its national borders opens up new opportunities, but also exposes the company to a more complex environment.
Different regulations, taxation, banking systems, local partners, commercial practices, cultural barriers, the movement of capital, and the enforcement of contracts: every country imposes its own rules, and every transaction creates its own constraints.
Icarus Investment was born out of this reality.
Our mission is to support businesses, investors and professionals facing these complexities and to provide them with the necessary resources to organise, develop and safeguard their international operations.
A resolutely operational approach
We believe that advice only truly has value when it can be put into practice.
Our work therefore begins with understanding the client’s objective: what they wish to achieve, in what context, with which parties and subject to what constraints.
We then analyse the factors likely to influence the transaction: legal structure, financial organisation, taxation, banking, regulation, partners, contractual risks and conditions of performance.
Where local expertise is required, our role is to identify and coordinate the relevant contacts in order to develop a coherent response.
A meeting point
International operations rarely require just one area of expertise.
A solicitor can deal with the legal aspects. A tax specialist can deal with tax matters. A bank can handle the financial flows. A distributor can provide access to the market.
But a company also needs someone who can understand how these different aspects interact.
ICARUS INVESTMENT positions itself as a hub where strategy, finance, an international network and operational execution converge.
We bring together the necessary skills, contacts and resources to work towards a single goal: the successful completion of the project.
Four complementary areas of intervention
Our business is centred on four areas of expertise:
CREATION & MANAGEMENT, to organise and manage an international presence.
DEVELOPPEMENT & INTERNATIONALE INTERMEDIATION to identify opportunities, partners, acquisitions, distributors or manufacturers, and to establish the relevant relationships.
PROTECTION & RECOVERY, to safeguard a company’s interests in the face of unpaid debts and cross-border contractual disputes.
PAYMASTER, to support the organisation and processing of payments relating to certain international transactions in accordance with the applicable compliance procedures.
These areas of expertise are complementary and enable us to support companies at various stages of their international operations.
A relationship based on confidentiality and trust
The operations entrusted to us may involve significant financial interests and may relate to sensitive commercial, financial or strategic information.
Confidentiality, the careful selection of contacts and rigour in the handling of information are therefore key principles underpinning our approach.
Each case is considered on its own merits.
An international ambition requires more than just a vision. It requires a structure, a network of contacts and the ability to deliver.
Trust is the foundation of any lasting relationship.
Every international transaction deserves careful consideration, a rigorous approach and a single, trusted point of contact who can meet your specific needs in complete confidence.
