Tax Advisory
We specialise in assisting our clients in achieving their commercial and strategic goals in a tax efficient manner.
Our client based is varied and includes partnerships, owner managed businesses, VC/PE backed portfolio companies, as well as publicly listed (both domestic and international) organisations. Accordingly our knowledge of the tax issues and opportunities impacting our clients is extensive.
We adopt a fully integrated approach in dealing with the interaction of taxes in a particular situation and provide proactive strategic advice linked to stakeholder goals and objectives.
Examples of the type of projects and assignments we undertake are as follows:
- Group and capital structuring including inbound and outbound expansion
- Vendor assistance leading up to and on exit
- Employee incentivisation and share based payments
- Extraction of non trade assets
- Transfer pricing compliance and planning
- Releasing potentially trapped interest following funded buy outs
- Demergers both statutory and non statutory
- Balance sheet restructuring
- Establishing and structuring overseas operations
- Corporate residency and controlled foreign company (“CFC”) reviews
- Managing effective tax rates cross border
- Maximising R and D tax credits
- Real estate planning and structuring
- EIS structuring
- EMI implementation and agreeing option price
- Tax efficient extraction of profits
Our Tax team are experience practitioners, typically with “Big 4” accountancy firm backgrounds, and have advised on the full range of clients from funded start ups, owner-managed, public and larger multi-national companies.
Given our backgrounds we tend to work, more typically, with listed and larger multinational organisations (for both compliance and advisory services) where auditor independence restricts the level of assistance a group’s incumbent advisers are able to provide.
