Many aspects affect group structures and the need for changes. Adjustments to group structures are guided by strategic guidelines provided by the owners, as the group structure must be in line with their goals and needs.
The group structure and the form of ownership are particularly important when the owner is a municipality or another party subject to income tax to a limited extent. Corporatisation and changes to the group structure often generate considerable sales gains for the parent company or the municipality as the owner. In the best cases, changes to the group structure serve the needs of the owner by producing an efficient way to achieve operational goals, tax-wise and performance-wise, in addition to generating significant sales gains.
