Tax/business structuring services

International companies can enjoy great tax/corporate planning opportunities, which local companies cannot afford. A right structure makes business more effective and returns higher.

As recent US corporate inversion cases have shown, mature companies spend billions trying to optimize their tax/business structures. Therefore, investments should be structured at earliest stage possible. In most cases we can build a highly flexible structure that can fit any path taken by your business in the future.

In the light of the latest OECD developments, structures often have to have substance. We can both plan top-level business/tax-efficient structures and implement them from A to Z.

We can create a truly efficient structure that will combine the following:

  • Safe ownership
  • Transparency for potential investors/IPO
  • (In most cases) a possibility of tax-free disposal of the business or its part
  • Low effective tax rate (decimals of a per cent is some cases) fully compliant with state laws, tax treaties, EU and OECD rules
  • Minimal taxation of owners and top-managers income
  • Each part of the structure can be a perfectly sound revenue-earning unit
  • All intra- and inter-group transactions supported by bespoke agreements
  • External General Counsel services
Turnkey implementation
  • Tax/corporate/IP planning
  • Transfer pricing analysis (with the help of a reputable audit firm of your choice)

Where necessary,

  • Company formation
  • Bank accounts
  • Working permissions
  • Office rental
  • Office substance
  • Headhunting
  • Company trust ownership (if necessary for the US DTA or other reasons)
  • Personal taxation of the top managers
  • IP management and accounting
  • Financial accounting and audit (through partners)
