Case Study

• Our multinational client used one set of numbers for both statutory and management reporting 
• There was a tension between arm's length pricing needed for statutory accounting purposes and management transactions needed to drive optimal corporate behaviour  
• The trading model being used for statutory purposes was extremely complex with hundreds of legal agreements. Due to this complexity it was hard for any one person to understand the trading model and consequently it was poorly implemented, leading to both direct and indirect tax inefficiencies 
• This was not just a tax issue but also a management information issue and so we worked closely with our colleagues in advisory as well as our client to develop a solution which simplified the group's internal trading model and delivered tax savings in the region of £50m+ per annum
