The Business Hub assists with initial enquiries and introductions to professionals whose expertise matches the transaction, the jurisdictions involved and the work required.
The adviser or service provider will agree the scope of the engagement, fees and responsibilities before substantive work begins.
Legal advice and transactions
Local legal advice may be required for a property acquisition, business purchase, company formation or commercial agreement. Establish the relevant jurisdiction and obtain advice before signing a binding document or making an irreversible payment.
Corporate administration and accounting
An operating company needs reliable records and a clear process for renewals, filings and changes in ownership or management. Accounting support should be suited to the company's activities and the requirements of its regulator and tax authority.
Documents and certification
Applications and international transactions may require certified copies, notarisation, legalisation or an apostille. Confirm the requirements of the receiving authority before arranging certification, as the appropriate form depends on the document and its intended use.
Banking and financial arrangements
We can assist with an introduction or help identify the information a provider will request. Banks and other financial institutions make their own decisions on whether to accept a customer and on what terms.
Personal financial planning and investment advice should be provided by professionals authorised for the relevant activity and jurisdiction. The suitability of a product depends on the client's objectives and circumstances.
Explain the matter at the outset
Describe the transaction or issue, the countries involved and any approaching deadline. Please begin with a summary; sensitive supporting documents can be requested through an appropriate channel if they are needed.
