A UK real estate client wanted to expand abroad as the home market was saturated. We helped them find a non-executive director with expertise in overseas markets, and brought in a team of tax experts who were specialists in specific Central and Eastern European markets.

With the guidance of these strategic thinkers, RSM helped the company plan its set-up. We advised on the headquarters’ location, structuring the holding company, repatriating profits, complying with indirect tax obligations, policies for transfer pricing, issues relating to the workforce, and expatriate taxation issues as it moved workers into different countries.

The client has now established its market presence in Eastern Europe and is exploring new opportunities in more established Western European markets.
