Service
The right structure from day one, and the right structure as you grow, bring in investors or plan your exit.
At a glance
Support from formation to exit: choosing and setting up the right structure for a new business, founder tax planning, and restructuring established businesses and groups, including holding companies, succession and preparing for a sale.
We look at your plans and current position, model the options and any tax charges along the way, and recommend a route in writing. For a new business we then handle the formation, registrations and accounting set-up; for a restructuring we work with your solicitors and other advisers to put it in place. Fees are agreed before work starts.
01
Situations we help with
A holding company can let you move profits between companies, protect cash and prepare for a sale. Done properly, the move is usually made by exchanging shares, without an immediate tax charge, and HMRC's clearance can be obtained in advance.
We design the route, apply for clearance and work with your solicitor on the paperwork.
SEIS and EIS give investors generous tax reliefs, and many will not invest without them. The company has to meet the conditions before the shares are issued, and a mistake can cost every investor their relief.
We check that you qualify, apply for HMRC advance assurance and make the post-investment filings.
Where a company's decisions are made can affect where it is taxed. Running a UK company from abroad can mean a second country also treats it as tax resident. How you take money out matters too.
We set up the company and its registrations, and make sure the structure works in both countries.

For founders
As a founder, your personal and business finances are closely linked. How you take money out of the company, how shares are held and how investors come in all affect your own tax position, so we plan them together.

Our approach
The right structure can make a significant difference to your tax position and your flexibility as the business grows. We start with what you want to achieve and design a structure that fits it, rather than a default that suits nobody in particular.
Every structure we recommend has to stand up commercially as well as for tax, and be properly documented, so it holds up if HMRC or a buyer's advisers look at it later.
