Our Wealth Tax Advisory Services
Our wealth tax advisory services aren’t just about minimising taxes—they’re about creating a strategy that aligns with your long-term goals. Here is the step-by-step breakdown of our complete services
Wealth Transfer Planning
Wealth transfer planning is often a major concern for high-net-worth individuals. The goal is to ensure that your wealth passes to future generations without causing an undue tax burden. The challenge lies in minimising estate taxes, ensuring that your heirs aren’t hit with unexpected liabilities, and structuring the transfer so that it aligns with your wishes.
Our wealth tax advisors specialise in creating tax-efficient strategies for wealth transfer. We focus on leveraging tools like lifetime gifting and charitable contributions to reduce estate taxes and help you achieve your vision. Our approach ensures that your wealth is passed on smoothly, with as little tax liability as possible.
For example, did you know that by gifting up to the lifetime exemption amount, you can reduce your estate size and potentially avoid estate taxes altogether? We’ll help you identify these opportunities, ensuring that your assets are protected for generations.
Estate Tax Planning
Estate tax is a significant concern for many wealthy individuals. The estate tax in the UK, for instance, can reach up to 40% on assets above a certain threshold, which can be a hefty sum, especially for large estates. Without proper planning, your estate could be subject to these high taxes, which would be a devastating blow to your beneficiaries.
Our tax advisors will help you implement strategies to mitigate estate tax liabilities, such as establishing structured assets to fall below taxable thresholds. We work with clients to structure their estates in a way that minimises exposure to taxes while also ensuring that the assets are passed to the intended recipients without complications.
For clients with estates over the threshold, it’s imperative to use strategies such as creating family trusts or gifting assets during life to reduce taxable estate value. This could lead to hundreds of thousands of pounds saved in estate taxes.
Tax-Efficient Investment Strategies
When it comes to wealth management, taxes can significantly impact your returns. The higher your wealth, the more complicated your investments become, and the greater the impact of taxes on your investment growth. However, with a strategic tax approach, you can structure your investments to be as tax-efficient as possible.
We offer in-depth tax analysis on all types of investments, including stocks, bonds, real estate, and business ventures. Our advisors work to structure your investment portfolio to minimise capital gains tax and other tax liabilities. By considering tax implications at every stage of the investment cycle, we ensure that your wealth is protected and continues to grow.
If you have multiple types of assets, such as property or business interests, our advisors will help you identify tax strategies that minimise tax on dividends, interest, and capital gains. This could involve rebalancing your portfolio or exploring tax-advantaged accounts, making your investments work harder and smarter.
Business Succession Planning
As a business owner, ensuring the smooth transition of your business to the next generation or new ownership can be a complex process. The tax implications of business succession can be significant, and without the right planning, you could face hefty taxes on the sale or transfer of business ownership.
Our wealth tax advisors specialise in business succession planning, helping you plan for a smooth transition. Whether you’re looking to pass the business to family members or sell it to a third party, we’ll work with you to create a strategy that reduces taxes and ensures that the succession process is as smooth as possible.
By using strategies such as gifting shares of the business, establishing buy-sell agreements, and taking advantage of tax deferral opportunities, we help you protect your legacy while minimising tax liabilities.
Charitable Giving Strategies
Philanthropy is a common goal among high-net-worth individuals, but without proper tax planning, your charitable giving could result in a significant tax burden. Fortunately, there are many ways to structure charitable gifts in a way that benefits both the charity and your financial situation.
We work with clients to develop charitable giving strategies that increase tax benefits. Whether you’re interested in creating a charitable foundation, making gifts directly to charity, or using tax-advantaged giving vehicles such as donor-advised funds, we can help you handle the complexities of charitable giving and ensure that you make the most of the tax deductions available.
One example is using charitable remainder trusts (CRTs), which allow you to donate assets to a charity while receiving an income stream from those assets during your lifetime. This can significantly reduce your taxable estate and provide ongoing support for causes that matter to you.
International Tax Planning
For high-net-worth individuals with assets or business interests in multiple countries, international tax planning is essential. Different countries have different tax laws, and without careful planning, you could end up facing double taxation or losing a significant portion of your wealth.
We specialise in cross-border tax planning, helping clients structure their international assets and businesses in a way that minimises their global tax liabilities. We’ll help you understand the tax treaties between countries and ensure that your assets are protected no matter where they’re located.
For clients with offshore accounts, real estate, or business interests in foreign countries, we provide the right advice on how to handle complex international tax laws and avoid double taxation. Our strategies help ensure that your global wealth remains intact and protected from unnecessary taxes.
Tax Controversy and Dispute Resolution
If you’re facing a tax audit or dispute with the tax authorities, it can be a stressful and overwhelming process. Tax issues can escalate immediately, and the stakes are high for high-net-worth individuals. Whether you’re dealing with an audit, a tax lien, or any other tax-related dispute, we offer guidance and representation to resolve your issues.
Our wealth tax advisors have experience dealing with the IRS and other tax authorities, and we’ll work to resolve your tax issues in a way that minimises penalties and preserves your wealth. We’ll help you tackle the complexities of tax audits and disputes, ensuring that your rights are protected and that your financial situation is resolved as efficiently as possible.
Income Tax Planning
Managing your income taxes is one of the most critical aspects of wealth tax management. Without a strategic approach to income tax planning, you could end up paying more than necessary, especially if you have multiple income streams or investments that create taxable income.
We’ll analyse your income sources, such as salaries, dividends, rental income, and capital gains, and help you develop strategies to reduce your taxable income. From tax deferrals to income-splitting strategies, we’ll ensure that you pay only what’s necessary, keeping more of your income and growing your wealth for the future.
