• One entity pays expenses for another.
• You share staff, tools, or subscriptions across brands.
• You move money “because it’s all us” (and then can’t explain it later).

What “clean” looks like

• Each entity has its own bank account and chart of accounts.
• Shared expenses are allocated with a rule (headcount, usage, revenue %, fixed split).
• Intercompany transfers carry memos: why, for what, and under what agreement.

The two documents that prevent chaos

• Intercompany services agreement (what one entity provides to another).
• Allocation policy (how shared costs are split and reviewed).

Operator rule

• If you can’t explain it to a banker in 30 seconds, it’s not “clean.”
