A Dutreil Agreement is a commitment to retain shares in companies based in France or in a foreign country, taken by several partners representing at least 34% of the share capital.
When the appropriate conditions and commitments are fulfilled, it makes it possible to benefit from very important tax advantages, and in particular a 75% deduction off the value of assets in the case of donation or inheritance.
The Dutreil Agreement regime is very powerful and complex.
