Executive Tax
As well as advising quoted and unquoted companies, Burges Salmon has considerable expertise in advising company executives in relation to their personal and tax situations.
We advise clients and intermediaries, and support other practice areas of the firm, on a wide variety of tax related matters, including:
- tax efficient remuneration and capital gains tax strategies
- use of on-shore and off-shore employee benefit trusts
- non-residence and planning opportunities for the internationally mobile executive
- share options and alternatives making existing share options more tax efficient
- overseas domicilaries living and working in the UK
Like the Incentives team, the Executive Tax team pride ourselves on giving advice which:
- excels in understanding and applying technical tax law
- explains complex tax schemes in simple terms
- ensures clients' deadlines are met
- exceeds clients' expectations
Having advised on appropriate tax planning strategy for you, the Executive Tax team is fully integrated with the Incentives team to allow that strategy to be implemented.
Tax planning for executives is best dealt with at as early a stage as possible, but opportunities will often remain available even if planning is not put in place immediately. Our advice covers a wide range of tax-planning opportunities and is relevant both to executives in public companies and those who may own and manage their own businesses.
The advice given to individuals in relation to their own tax position will often lead on to advice to the company in order to turn that advice into a practical reality.
Our advice in this area may also draw on the expertise of colleagues who specialise in more general areas of personal advice.
