- Modern Slavery Statement | United Kingdom
Modern Slavery Statement This statement is published in accordance with section 54(1) of the Modern Slavery Act 2015 Statement on Modern Slavery and Human Trafficking In respect of the section 54(1) of the Modern Slavey Act 2015, we recognise our responsibililty to prevent modern slavery and human trafficking from existing in our business and from our supply chain. Rawlinson & Hunter LLP is a well established accountancy practice employing approximately 270 staff in the UK. We have offices in central London and Leatherhead, Surrey. Our core business is the provision of taxation and accountancy services to a broad international and UK client base. Rawlinson & Hunter LLP is a member of the Institute of Chartered Accountants in England and Wales (ICAEW), and all Partners and members of staff demonstrate high standards of professional conduct by following the ICAEW Code of Ethics throughout our business activity. We believe that our business and the sector in which we operate are relatively low risk in this regard as we employ a workforce of well paid and highly skilled people, we do not generally subcontract out work and we have a limited number of third party suppliers. This statement, however, is a reflection of our commitment to develop and implement working practices to minimise the risk of modern slavery and human trafficking taking place. We have clear employment policies and processes in place and believe that we operate to a high level of compliance with best employment practices. New and existing staff receive thorough training in our employment policies. We have rigorous processes in place to vet all staff who we directly employ. It is a requirement that all staff we employ provide evidence of their right to work in the UK and we additionally conduct employment reference and disclosure and barring checks for all staff. We have a whistleblowing policy in place which encourages employees to report wrongdoing in our business, including any suspected criminal activity such as human trafficking or modern slavery. The policy protects employees from detrimental treatment as a result of making the report. We have a clear process for investigating such claims and ensuring that appropriate actions are taken. Our key suppliers are providers of services such as IT software and hardware, professional training and education, cleaning, maintenance, utilities and recruitment. We expect our suppliers to have appropriate anti-slavery and human trafficking policies and processes in place and when we engage new suppliers we communicate to them that we have zero tolerance in regard to these matters. As we renew our supplier contracts, we will be seeking reassurances that these suppliers have similar procedures in place to help prevent modern slavery and human trafficking. Training Staff are made aware through training of our intolerance towards modern slavery and human trafficking and we provide training to those involved in procurement and supplier management to help them to address risks directly with providers. This statement has been approved by the Management Team for and on behalf of Rawlinson & Hunter LLP.
- Corporate | Rawlinson & Hunter LLP
We work with corporate and entrepreneurial clients of all sizes and complexity. We consider that our approach is different in starting from the premise that our advice needs to address stakeholder concerns which are much wider than those which are obvious from the confinements of the corporate box. CORPORATE Rawlinson & Hunter is probably best known in the profession for its award-winning services to private clients, so it is perhaps surprising that the largest team in the Firm provides services to companies and businesses. A complete range of services is provided for companies in all stages of development, from the smaller entrepreneurial business to the large international corporation. As with all our services, the partners lead the work supported by our highly qualified staff. We work with corporate and entrepreneurial clients of all sizes and complexity. We consider that our approach is different in starting from the premise that our advice needs to address stakeholder concerns which are much wider than those which are obvious from the confinements of the corporate box. This holistic thinking along with the expertise and experience which we have to offer is what we believe our clients value. The range of corporate services which we offer is broad. In addition to the standard services such as audit and assurance, company secretarial support, management accounting, VAT and payroll, we also provide a suite of advisory services. Our corporate partners have wide experience of operating in other environments, whether in Big 4 Firms or in industry and bring a wealth of expertise to the table. We often advise on corporate finance and other corporate transactions such as sales and acquisitions, and can advise comprehensively on the tax and VAT issues affecting entrepreneurial clients and their businesses. We can provide outsourced financial support and, where the project requires it, litigation support and forensic accounting services. Our range of services to entrepreneurial clients is very wide and our role in each case is driven by our clients’ needs. Our international offices are highly experienced in the formation and administration of offshore corporate structures, ranging from sophisticated captive insurance and fund management companies to simple asset-owning vehicles. Full administration services are provided in the offshore centres by our partners and staff.

- Audit & Assurance | Rawlinson & Hunter LLP
Rawlinson & Hunter has extensive experience of providing audit and assurance services to a wide range of companies and groups from many industries. AUDIT & ASSURANCE Whilst audits are a statutory requirement in many of the jurisdictions in which we operate, in others they are not. We find many clients still request audits in those locations for a variety of reasons, such as to ensure that their affairs are correctly managed. Those clients often find that the local management’s knowledge of, and involvement in, the audit process often engenders stronger corporate governance and re-emphasises the importance of the entity’s controls. Where the expense of a full financial statement or systems audit cannot be readily justified, we also regularly undertake limited scope procedures focused on those areas of higher risk which we and our clients identify as benefiting from enhanced external scrutiny. Rawlinson & Hunter has extensive experience of providing audit and assurance services to a wide range of companies and groups from many industries. Our clients range from start-up businesses to large listed international groups operating in sectors as diverse as entertainment, media, the arts, fund management, fashion and property investment. Many would argue that an audit has its limitations and provides little real value prospectively. At Rawlinson & Hunter, we adopt a different approach and do not treat the audit merely as a statutory obligation. We strive to understand the way in which the business works and to help identify ways to improve it, with the aim of delivering some added value to the shareholders. We try to involve our client in the audit process and, like all of our services, our audits are partner-led, ensuring our clients benefit from our extensive business advisory experience. The audit and assurance services which we provide can therefore deliver demonstrable insights and real cash savings to our clients. The recommendations which we make enable decision makers to take confident, informed decisions about their business, reduce risk and take advantage of any opportunities. Audit work in most jurisdictions is a regulated activity and can only be carried out by certain firms within the Rawlinson & Hunter International grouping of firms.
