Governance & compliance
Sound governance is the foundation of a long-term investor. We keep our structure simple, our decisions documented and our obligations met.
Lykeion is managed by its statutory director, who is accountable for all decisions. Material decisions are documented and archived. Our registrations with the Netherlands Chamber of Commerce, including the UBO register, are kept up to date.
We monitor market and liquidity risk regularly with our advisers, track interest-rate sensitivity across real estate and fixed income, review insurance cover annually and diversify across sectors and asset classes.
Bookkeeping, including bank reconciliation, is carried out monthly by an independent administration office. Annual accounts and tax returns are prepared with independent professionals. All financial records are archived digitally with controlled access.
Meeting our obligations
Laws and regulations
We comply with Dutch and EU law and with the laws of any country in which we do business.
Reporting and tax
Our annual accounts, tax returns and registrations are prepared and filed with the support of independent professionals.
Know your counterparty
We know who we do business with, we support the customer due diligence of our banks and advisers, and we do not deal with sanctioned persons or entities.
Anti-corruption
We do not offer, give, request or accept bribes or improper benefits, directly or through others.
Decide, record, report
Management decides; independent professionals record, report and file. This separation provides an additional layer of oversight and accountability.
