Owner-operated companies
A large number of issues impact owner-operated companies. The most central ones usually relate to dividends and capital gains.
Sales of business operations
When companies and/or business operations are sold, it’s important that that they position themselves correctly in order to qualify for deduction entitlements and ensure that they are not subject to unnecessary taxation. It is necessary to find a structure that is adapted specifically to each business.
Restructuring
Restructuring is never a self-evident process of change but rather a tool that is implemented to achieve a goal. Perhaps the market has changed, a divestment may be in order, or a generation shift? One factor is inevitable – the creation of tax effects when transfers of business operations, companies and personnel, are initiated. The method used to implement structural change can also create tax effects, both good and bad.
International tax matters
International tax matters arise as soon as another country becomes involved in any way. The company suddenly becomes subject not only to Swedish tax regulations, but also to the tax regulations of the other country in question, plus any agreements between the two countries.
Incentive programmes
Generation change
When the time comes for the older generation to step aside and let the younger generation take over, a number of questions always arise. In many cases, a family’s entire fortune is invested in the company.
Pension solutions
Tax disputes
From time to time, entrepreneurs and the Swedish Tax Agency have different perceptions of what is right and wrong. When the Tax Agency has an opinion that differs from yours, we help you manage the dispute.
Value Added Tax (VAT) questions
Questions concerning VAT have become much more complicated and internationalised. The legal system is controlled from an EU perspective and legal cases in other countries can impact Sweden.
Choice of corporate structure
The most common change in corporate structure takes place when a private company is primed for development and restructured to create a limited partnership or limited liability company. The changes and structures adopted by companies, impact on the taxes to their business.
Start-ups/divestments
A large number of practical matters need to be addressed when a company is to be formed or discontinued, such as re-registration and deregistration, establishing companies and/or liquidating companies.
