This includes family offices and high net worth individual tax practices, as well as our Global Investments and Innovation Incentives (Gi3) practice.

Indirect Tax

We offer compliance and advisory services to assist clients in meeting their requirements in rapidly evolving indirect tax regimes. These include areas like VAT, sales, Global Trade Advisory and Domestic Tax Compliance. Our teams combine expert knowledge with the latest technology to provide the best possible services for our clients.

Financial Investors

In Financial Investors, we help our clients make strategic investment decisions by providing commercially focused tax advice across all aspects of the investment lifecycle – encompassing buying, managing, and selling the businesses they invest in. Whether they are a private fund manager raising capital to invest or a sovereign wealth fund, a client buying a windfarm, or a client selling to a private buyer, tax will be at the centre of any investment decision they make.

We provide comprehensive tax advisory and compliance services for all types of investors interested in investing or dealing in Real Estate.

Working with multinational organisations, we align strategies with desired business outcomes and help clients (both inbound and outbound) to optimise their cash and reported tax positions. We also support them to understand and comply with their international compliance requirements and manage their international tax risks.

Transfer Pricing

We help clients to plan, manage and solve complex pricing matters impacting their global operations. Our services include resolving disputes and gaining tax certainty, aligning the tax outcomes with value chains, providing solution-based economic analysis, and documenting transfer pricing positions to support regulatory requirements.

Tax Technology Consulting

Our Tax Technology Consulting (TTC) business helps tax departments pursue a streamlined, transparent and efficient tax function that enhances the core responsibilities of compliance, reporting and planning, while also positioning tax as a strategic business advisor for the digital era. This includes support for tax risk management, tax strategy and tax operations, shared services, data and information management, data analytics, technology and systems integration and process improvement, all related to the tax function.

Our clients range from high-net-worth individuals and highly ambitious start-ups to a large number of FTSE 100 and 250 companies, with significant global footprints.

Our global mobility team helps clients to meet their strategic global mobility needs.  We advise on remuneration structuring and management, mobility transformation programmes to help clients meet their strategic goals, as well immigration and social security planning.  We also have a market-leading technology team and a specialist group that focuses on delivering high-quality US and UK tax planning to high-net worth individuals.

Reward

In our reward practice, we advise some of the world’s largest multinational organisations on some of the most complex and challenging employment tax and reward issues. We work closely with our clients to design and implement commercial, innovative approaches to remunerating employees, ensuring they remain compliant with the constantly changing employment tax and regulatory requirements.

In the context of every greater market complexity, increasing regulation and digital transformation, there are growing expectations on corporate legal teams to add more value to their businesses.

While our clients respect law firms for their advice, it is typically discrete, rarely multidisciplinary and doesn’t help them solve their business challenges sustainably.

Deloitte Legal is a new kind of legal business designed to meet this growing need. We blend great advisory capabilities with the technology, process and change management skills to move from advice to implementation and managing legal operations. We are delivering to legal buyers the Deloitte promise of practical solutions to real business problems.

Our business is grouped into four main offerings:

Corporate Services

We help clients deal efficiently with the legal aspects of corporate growth and governance by industrialising activities such as M&A and Legal Entity Management.

Contracts

We offer the clients we work with a comprehensive solution for high volume contracting. By adding process, playbooks and scaling delivery, we’re able to elevate the legal expertise we offer, reducing cost and risk and increasing spend.

Legal Management Consulting

Using technology and process improvement, our legal management consulting teams support clients’ legal functions. Through our expertise, we’re able to transform these functions, increasing value and boosting their efficiency and effectiveness.

Assets

We revolutionise the way clients drive value from their assets, while ensuring regulatory compliance. Our Assets teams focus on four different areas:

Regulatory

We guide clients through complex, dynamic and interconnected regulatory landscapes relating to financial services, internet regulation, and data privacy.

Real Estate

We offer solutions-focused legal expertise across key areas of real estate, including living, regeneration, occupiers, development and investment.

Intellectual Property

We support our clients to identity, develop and maximise their use of data, technology, AI and other assets relating to intellectual property.

People

We help clients to attract, motivate and retain the best talent during a time of growing social expectation, legal protection and requirements.
