general tax planning & advice (income tax and GST)

Vincents recognises that taxes represent a significant cost that must be managed effectively to enable taxpayers to legally minimise their liability, whilst meeting all statutory obligations. The benefits flowing from effective tax planning can be obtained by:

• business proprietors
• shareholders and investors 
• individual tax payers

In order to minimise the impact of direct and indirect taxes, it is essential that appropriate advice be obtained. The business services team is promptly aware of significant taxation rulings and/or any changes to the taxation laws and can offer solutions in any situation where a planning strategy is to be implemented.

tax effective structuring of major transactions

To ensure that the optimum tax outcome is achieved, Vincents is available to review major transactions, prior to their implementation, such as:

• the purchase or sale of a business
• the acquisition or disposal of individual assets
• the choice of the most appropriate structure for a business
• group restructures
• raising funds by way of capital or debt
• international dealings

Our advisers are then able to make recommendations, if necessary, for a different approach.

• companies
• trusts
• partnerships
