| 2. | The overall objective of the Proposal is to ‘make it easier for any potential company founder, and in particular for SMEs, to set up companies abroad’.

The Proposal provides for ‘the possibility of online registration, with the standard template for the articles of association, a minimum capital requirement of EUR 1, accompanied by a balance sheet test and a solvency statement.’ To help ensure transparency, it also requires disclosure of certain information about the single-member company in a register accessible to the public (2). |

| 4. | Recitals 4-5 of the Decision highlight the importance of data protection and provide that since the various Portal-related tasks and functions of the Commission and the Member States will entail different responsibilities and obligations as regards data protection, it is essential to delimit them clearly. Accordingly, the Decision aims at providing more clarity and legal certainty with regard to the responsibilities of the Commission as a controller in connection with its activities relating to the operation of the Portal. |
