One consequence of the Firm’s partner-led service is that our clients tend over time to forge a close and trusting relationship with the Partner responsible for their affairs. It is therefore perhaps unsurprising that many clients ask a Partner of the Firm to act as an Executor under their Will. PROBATE One consequence of the Firm’s partner-led service is that our clients tend over time to forge a close and trusting relationship with the Partner responsible for their affairs. It is therefore perhaps unsurprising that many clients ask a Partner of the Firm to act as an Executor under their Will. This can be done either through a personal appointment or through the Firm’s trust corporation. The Firm is authorised by the ICAEW to conduct non-contentious probate work, and a number of the Firm’s partners and Directors are qualified to provide these services. We can therefore work with the co-executors of the estate and its beneficiaries and offer full and immediate professional support through to the end of the administration period. We recognise the sensitivity which is required at such a time. With our existing detailed knowledge of our clients’ financial affairs, we are well placed, with a comprehensive understanding of their financial affairs, to identify the assets falling within the estate, liquidate them where necessary, prepare estate accounts and distribute the estate to the beneficiaries in accordance with the Will. Where the Will provides for the creation of a trust to hold the assets from the estate going forward, we are then able to provide a full range of trustee and trust administration services. As tax specialists, we can also advise carefully on the Inheritance Tax implications of the estate. Sometimes, beneficiaries of an estate wish to disclaim or vary their entitlements and this can have an impact on the Inheritance Tax position. This is an area in which we frequently advise and have significant experience. Where business interests fall within the estate and have to be valued, this is an area where we have considerable experience and we are able to negotiate and agree valuations with HMRC, as well as agree the availability of reliefs. At a difficult time for the family, our role is to ensure that the estate is administered with efficiency and discretion.

Property transactions are complicated and costly for clients. There are many different taxes and fees involved throughout all stages of a property’s life cycle. It is essential for clients to seek advice to limit their tax liability and ensure they pay no more than the correct amount. PROPERTY TAX Property transactions are complicated and costly for clients. There are many different taxes and fees involved throughout all stages of a property’s life cycle. From Stamp Duty Land Tax (“SDLT”) and VAT on purchase, to the Annual Tax on Enveloped Dwellings (“ATED”) during ownership, and Capital Gains Tax (“CGT”) or corporation tax (“CT”) on disposal, it is essential for clients to seek advice to limit their tax liability and ensure they pay no more than the correct amount. At Rawlinson & Hunter we use our experience and expertise to tailor our advice to our clients, whether individuals or companies. We are experts with extensive knowledge of property-related taxes, and the know-how to reduce the tax liabilities faced during a property’s life cycle. We deal with all of our clients’ tax filing and reporting requirements (including SDL:T and ATED) and guide them through the processes of paying and limiting their tax liabilities. We advise on all issues relating to property taxation, including advice on the best way to structure the acquisition of property, advice on the tax treatment of debt finance, advice on maximising tax deductions and reliefs available such as capital allowances, advice on the VAT implications of property transactions for businesses and advice on the sale of properties. We also have extensive experience in dealing with the compliance aspects of ATED for clients who hold property through companies, including preparation and submission of annual ATED returns, successfully dealing with enquiries from HMRC, and advising clients on bringing their ATED compliance up to date where there has been prior non-compliance, including successful negotiations with HMRC to mitigate the ATED charges where possible, and minimising the level of interest and penalties levied by HMRC. We also specialise in providing detailed SDLT advice and practical guidance to clients and their advisers on complex property transactions including multiple completions, multiple purchasers, mixed residential and non-residential purchases, and a variety of substantial residential and commercial lease transactions Our Specialists

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.

We act for publicly quoted and private companies, as well as entrepreneurs and shareholders, to offer an extensive range of transactional and advisory services. Successful businesses are constantly growing, changing and expanding, whether organically or by acquisition. TRANSACTION SUPPORT We act for publicly quoted and private companies, as well as entrepreneurs and shareholders, to offer an extensive range of transactional and advisory services. Successful businesses are constantly growing, changing and expanding, whether organically or by acquisition. Our bespoke approach provides timely and succinct reports to directors, shareholders and finance providers and has given us a reputation for delivering real value at a cost effective price. We offer comprehensive advice on how to structure transactions tax efficiently, such as acquisitions, disposals, restructuring, mergers, demergers, reconstructions and IPOs. We also have a great deal of expertise in obtaining clearance from HM Revenue & Customs for transactions where appropriate. Buying and selling a business or part of a business can prove a huge distraction to the investors, targets and the management team. This tension inevitably distracts focus from the day to day operations. Our multi-disciplinary team of experienced partners and staff can ease some of this burden while ensuring that a calm eye is kept on the financial and commercial opportunities which these changes inevitably bring. The areas where we typically might provide support include transaction advice and support, acquisition and disposal related tax and VAT advice, pre-disposal health checks, financial and tax due diligence (for vendor or buyer), exit route planning for investors, management buy-outs and buy-ins, key employee retention and incentivisation and succession planning. Our approach to all transactional due diligence work is to ensure that our partners and senior staff fully participate in the project, ensuring that our subsequent advice focuses on the key issues that we see facing the transaction and is provided by those with sufficient experience to give such advice.

Employing people in the UK carries with it a host of real time PAYE tax compliance and reporting obligations, as well as liability to National Insurance contributions. It is a considerable and time-consuming responsibility requiring a sound knowledge of complex payroll, taxation and employment legislation. EMPLOYMENT TAXES Employing people in the UK carries with it a host of real time PAYE tax compliance and reporting obligations, as well as liability to National Insurance contributions. It is a considerable and time-consuming responsibility requiring a sound knowledge of complex payroll, taxation and employment legislation. Great care is required to ensure that requirements are met. We have a dedicated payroll team which can undertake this work for you and give you peace of mind. In particular, we can administer PAYE schemes and deal with parental leave, sick pay, Apprenticeship Levy and student loan repayment. Depending on your preference, we can arrange payments to your staff through a client account, as well as payments of tax and National Insurance to HMRC. We can deal with benefits and expenses reporting and advise on bonuses, ex-gratia payments and termination packages. We can also provide support with HMRC PAYE audits. This is all relatively routine, but it needs to be dealt with accurately and with efficiency. Beyond this basic but essential offering, another area where we have considerable experience is with employee share schemes. Many of our entrepreneurial clients look to retain key employees through share incentives and we are able to advise on the options available in each situation and design and implement share schemes which align with their business strategy and objectives. This would include the agreement of share valuations with HMRC, where needed. We can also review, monitor and revise existing share plans to improve the commercial and tax effects in response to changes in business profile and legislation. Many of the Firm’s clients are entrepreneurs with businesses which employ people. Some of our clients have an international profile and move between countries frequently, or have employees who are internationally mobile. It is therefore important that we can deal with secondments overseas and into the UK, with all of the attendant consequences. We have a specialist tax team which advises in this area, with a particular emphasis on residence status, tax equalisation arrangements, overseas workday relief and ensuring that remuneration, including share incentives such as restricted stock units, is correctly allocated to different work periods so that the same remuneration is not taxed in two countries. We can advise on and put into operation reliefs against PAYE earnings where a portion of income is protected by a tax treaty or is only taxable on the remittance basis. It is also essential to ensure that an employee is not subject to the social security regime of more than one country. All of this is complex and requires familiarity with the operation of Double Taxation Agreements and social security agreements, so that the timing of any relief or exemptions due can be accelerated. Keeping on top of all of the challenges which employers and their employees face can be a daunting task, but our specialists have the skills and experience necessary to provide clear advice and professional support in these areas.

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.

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.

We provide advice to support clients transferring wealth to younger family members by establishing a plan to ensure that wealth is passed on in accordance with their wishes. WEALTH SUCCESSION At Rawlinson & Hunter, we understand that the transfer of wealth from one generation to another is more than a financial transaction – it is an emotional and personal decision. We provide thoughtful advice to support clients in approaching this topic with younger family members and establishing a plan to ensure that their wealth is passed on in accordance with their objectives, with clarity of messaging, tax-efficiency, and accountability by the recipient. With an ever increasing number choosing to transfer wealth while they are still alive, passing on wealth during one’s lifetime is a proactive approach to financial planning. This allows wealth-holders to witness the impact of their support, provide timely assistance to family members, and potentially reduce the size of their taxable estate. We understand that each client’s circumstances are unique. Whether they are planning for future generations, supporting philanthropic causes, or navigating complex family dynamics, we provide tailored advice that aligns with the client’s values and long-term goals. Conversations around money, inheritance, and future responsibilities can be emotionally charged. Addressing these issues directly, though sometimes challenging, is essential to ensuring that wealth is transferred in a way that reflects the intentions of the client. Often this will involve supporting families in developing governance structures and educating the next generation on financial stewardship to ensure they feel empowered to take on the commitments that come alongside the wealth. Our Partners work closely with clients to develop comprehensive strategies that address both the financial and emotional aspects of wealth succession, often working as part of multi-disciplinary professional teams. We can assist with establishing and administering structures such as trusts to provide control, flexibility, and protection for future generations, meaning our clients can have confidence that their beneficiaries are well supported and engaged in their role of future wealth preservation. With a growing number of internationally mobile families, understanding the nuances of cross-border succession is fundamental to any strategy. As a firm with offices around the world, Rawlinson & Hunter is well positioned to advise clients on the international considerations of intergenerational wealth transfer.
