As businesses in New Zealand compete in an increasingly global marketplace, their needs for internationally effective tax structures have increased. Cross-border trade and investment and international mergers and acquisitions have significant ramifications. From a tax perspective, all these questions need answering:
- Does your company have the right international corporate structure?
- Should operations be streamlined?
- What is the best way to invest in a new country of operation?
- What is the best way for an overseas parent to invest in a New Zealand business?
- What is the best way to repatriate monies offshore?
