The new consulting area of tax management set up in 2015 combines tax law with business management. It evolved from years of work with project consulting in the area of tax planning and structuring and the extensive experience with defence consultation, adjustments and voluntary declarations with groups, medium-sized companies and their owners, real estate companies, foundations and family offices. Our interdisciplinary tax management teams correspondingly consist exclusively of tax consultants and lawyers with practical experience from projects. We support clients with all matters concerning tax compliance and mitigation of tax.
The regulatory developments in Germany and abroad require processes tailored specifically to the individual requirements of the company which meet the flood of tax regulations and directives and keep the cost of taxation down to a minimum. The aim is to ensure that the management of tax in the company is legally compliant and to recognise, quantify and minimise process risks early on.
The multi-disciplinary orientation of the specialist colleagues in the area of tax management combined with access to over 100 own offices around the world enables us to actively manage ever more complex tax issues, i.e. to analyse, to mitigate the tax burden for relevant processes and recognise and eliminate risks in a timely manner. Our consulting approach combines the whole area of operational taxes for the company (income tax, sales tax and payroll tax) and also depending on the company considers the frequently underestimated interfaces between the company and owner, which in particular in relation to clients from German medium-sized companies sets us apart from the consulting approach of large US-American consulting firms. Based on many practical cases, we have, especially for German medium-sized companies, developed an implementation model for a tax compliance management system (tax CMS). Furthermore, we offer attractive and practical solutions for selective tax screening and in particular for real estate companies and family offices.
A functioning organisational structure in particular considers that the information flow within the company is ensured between the departments (in particular the personnel department, marketing, legal department, purchasing/sales, financial accounting) in a timely manner. This is the only way the financial accounting department or tax department can obtain the information and facts necessary to meet the tax obligations and therefore provide the board or company management with the information required to make important decisions. The same is valid for the design of the information flow in the family office even with very varied requirements for asset managers, banks, family and advisors.
