Inward investment
When you’re looking to set up a company in the UK from abroad, you want to work with people who understand what you need and can make things happen, efficiently and expertly. That’s what you’ll find at Berg Kaprow Lewis.
With experience as accountants and clients, our team understands the issues and concerns facing inward investing companies of all sizes, from start-ups to international groups.
We can act as your virtual finance department, but we also offer additional support in specialist areas including tax planning, transfer pricing, foreign exchange and acquisitions.
Our team is led by David Goldschmidt, who has more than 15 years’ experience as an inward investment adviser. For three years, he was the financial director of a £275 million multi-national group, giving him invaluable, hands-on experience of the issues facing parent companies dealing with overseas subsidiaries.
Outsourced accounting services
Many companies, both UK and foreign-based, use our outsourced accounting services. Our specialist team offers:
- bookkeeping
- liaising with parent company auditors regarding year-end
- monitoring cash flow
- monthly management accounts
- payroll
- reporting
- reporting formats.
We are experienced in international accounting standards and can advise on issues arising between the UK and your home country. We can help you put in place all the appropriate accounting systems, procedures, controls and reporting requirements. We also advise on accounting software and have a specialist IT division for more complex systems.
Our specialist tax division BKL Tax, which is used by many other accountancy firms for tax consultancy, complements our expertise in all areas of tax, ranging from compliance issues, such as corporate, personal and VAT returns, to sophisticated tax planning around company structures, acquisitions and disposals.
We are also expert in dealing with specific overseas tax issues, including transfer pricing, double tax treaties, interaction of home and UK taxes, VAT issues, import duty, employee tax and residency.
Employment law is a minefield for all companies and particularly if you are new to the UK. Our BKL Human Resources division can guide you on issues such as contracts of employment, recruitment, remuneration and employment policies and procedures.
We can arrange introductions to banks and other funding sources and assist with negotiations, as well as advising on issues including foreign currency and treasury management.
We have a dedicated corporate finance division, as well as wide-ranging corporate finance experience across the team. We can assist with negotiations, undertake due diligence and advise on issues such as warranties, deal structure and earn-outs, as well as tax considerations.
We can work alongside your legal team on matters including property leases, contract terms and company secretarial matters.
