More than ever, multinational enterprises need to look at their current group structures and look for cross-border opportunities for business expansion purposes.
In today’s dynamic tax environment, it is important that multinational groups have robust tax structures and consider both short-term and long-term tax planning opportunities. It is important to understand the tax requirements of each jurisdiction in which they operate and assess the impact of domestic tax laws, double tax treaties and multilateral agreements on cross-border transactions.
Multinational groups must be forward-thinking and anticipate the potential short-term and long-term consequences of tax planning decisions at a global level and in the context of their wider business objectives.
We support multinational groups to optimise their tax structures. We can also assist businesses in analysing existing group transactions and inter-group supplies, as well as advising on potential implications of various taxes to facilitate an efficient group tax structure.
