William Buck

Delivering strategic advice, innovative solutions and service excellence.

Tax Services

William Buck prides itself on its dynamic, leading edge tax practice.  Our specialists have extensive tax and commercial experience and expertise that provides you with high quality, practical advice on issues from tax consolidation to transfer pricing, from succession planning for your family business through to the design of your executive remuneration system.

Whether it is a specific issue or a larger transaction, the effective management of your tax position is critical.  An increasing focus on regulation and governance, the fast pace of legislative change and the potentially severe penalties for non-compliance means that navigating tax issues can be challenging, but with these challenges comes opportunities.

William Buck Tax Services can work with you to manage your tax risk, deal with your Australian and international tax issues and develop strategies to utilise tax concessions and planning opportunities.

We place significant emphasis on training and involvement with the leading professional bodies as well as participation in lobbying and ATO liaison groups.

Our strong Australian team is supported by an international network of accomplished tax professionals.

Remuneration planning

Whether it is through salary packaging or employee share plans, there are many opportunities to increase the value of the remuneration you give to your employees without increasing the cost to your business.  As the demand for skilled staff continues to increase, offering innovative, commercially focused remuneration packages is a critical part of attracting and retaining key staff.

Structuring your business

The legal structure through which your business is owned and operated is one of the most critical, and difficult, decisions you will need to make.  What is the optimum structure in your situation?  Is you existing structure still appropriate?  Is the benefit of restructuring worth the costs?  William Buck Tax Services can help design, restructure and implement the most efficient and effective structure for your situation.
