In addition to our existing clients within the area of traditional tax advice VENTRADA Corporate Tax can support the procedure involved with business start-ups, selling a company as well as raising external capital. It’s fundamentally about analysing the tax framework of a new business or a transfer, finding out how best to organise it and then implementing it. At the set-up stage choosing the right legal structure is of prime importance.

With regard to established businesses that are expanding it’s our job to make sure that the sale or investor participation is structured in as tax efficient a way as possible. There are also implications to consider from both the company’s perspective and from the perspective of the shareholder. As the intermediary we can make sure that conflicts of interest with regard to tax between the seller and the purchaser are kept to a minimum.

In terms of succession planning the departing owner should not only obtain a good price for their life’s work but be able to enjoy the proceeds for their business in the most tax efficient manner possible. There is a wealth of options for shaping the transfer of the business which do justice to all the parties involved.

Any advice from within the field of Corporate Tax is not offered by VENTRADA Corporate Finance GmbH itself. Any questions relating to tax matters may be answered by the team of highly specialised and experienced tax advisers or auditors who are on hand and with whom we have been successfully working with for years.
