Shell companies are not the same as a person working as a "one man band"

For example a company I worked for had a structure where the employees and customers (~250 employees and £50million turnover) were mostly interacting with the named company, but there were three other companies that "onion skinned" the company with the name.

This was done to manage debt, primarily, which then allowed manipulation of taxes.
