Shareholder / Transaction Taxes
As a business owner, your objective is to maximise the return you make on your investment. There will be times that this will involve more than the day to day operation of the business, and may extend to acquisitions, disposals or even a total sale of your whole portfolio.
Our services in this area include:
- Vendor and purchaser due diligence, where our Motor Trade specialism allows us to identify issues that other advisors may miss;
- Transaction structuring advice to enable you to effect the acquisition or disposal in the most tax efficient way both now and in the future;
- Group restructuring to ensure your business is set up in the way which enables you to maximise the post tax return on your assets;
- Capital gains tax planning to ensure that the tax you pay on any gain you make is as low as it can legitimately be;
- Capital allowances reviews to ensure you obtain the maximum tax relief available on the purchase of assets;
- VAT advice on the appropriate treatment of the transaction; and
- Advice on the preservation of tax losses so that as a purchaser you can obtain relief in future, or as vendor you receive appropriate consideration for the value of those losses.
If you are thinking of selling your business in the future or looking to make further investments, the time to take advice is now.
