What are the tax implications of investing through a Series LLC structure?

Sydecar leverages the Series LLC structure as it offers flexibility and potential tax benefits for VC investments in privately held companies.


Each series in a Series LLC is treated as a separate entity for tax purposes and all series have their assets and liabilities separate from other series and the Parent LLC. This separation of assets and liability for Series LLC is pursuant to Delaware Law.


The Series LLC structure allows for pass-through taxation. This means the income, deductions, credits, and other tax attributes of each series pass through to the investors, who report these amounts on their personal tax returns.
