Tax Consultancy - SGD - Spencer Gardner Dickins

Tax consultancy is the key to compliance

High-net-worth individuals and SME business owners, from start-ups to £100m turnover groups, all stand to benefit from a deeper understanding of tax.

Rather than being something to fear and dread, your tax bill should be faced head-on.

HMRC continues to focus on reducing the tax gap through increased compliance activity.

Anyone whose tax is not simply handled through PAYE can benefit from seeking tax consultancy support to mitigate tax exposure and stay compliant with obligations.

How does tax consultancy work?

While there are general rules that must be followed and set deadlines to meet, your tax position is as unique as you are.

Tax consultancy begins with a thorough review of your business, assets, estate, income, investments, and anything else that could impact your obligations.

Our experts will take the time to understand you and your financial goals, making you aware of how tax currently affects you and what may change in the near future.

From this point, we can advise you on ways to become more tax efficient, helping you identify available reliefs and planning opportunities and ensure you meet deadlines with confidence.

SGD: the tax consultancy experts

Noticing the increasing pressures our clients faced with their tax, our team has built extensive expertise across the UK tax system.

This has resulted in us being familiar with tax implications, exposures and mitigation strategies for a wide range of businesses and individuals.

There is never a need to exploit loopholes or try to dodge tax with aggressive schemes.

Instead, tax planning should come from a place of deep understanding of the tax system and a fundamental respect for what it is trying to achieve.

In particular, our tax consultancy service covers:

Remuneration planning, profit extraction and employee incentive schemes
Buying and selling of businesses
Capital Gains Tax Planning
Corporate reconstructions
Succession planning
Property Taxation
Inheritance Tax planning, including Trusts
Tax Residency / non-residency status
Research and Development Tax Credits (R&D)
Share Schemes and Employee Ownership Schemes
Financial Due Diligence (management buy outs, buy ins and acquisitions)

We have been with SGD for just over 10 years professionally and over 30 years as a family. These stats alone should speak volumes. We continue to experience a level of service and professionalism usually only associated with far larger Firms. With SGD, customers retain their name and do not merely become an account number that gets lost between the cracks – as happens with so many other Accountancy Firms. SGD retains talent which gives total peace of mind as a customer; SGD has expertise in everything you need. We would highly recommend them.
