What are your challenging problems?

Our clients know they have a problem, but they don't understand all the issues and are struggling to develop workable solutions in an ever-changing global landscape. Their challenges are multi-disciplinary, frequently involving Human Resource, Corporate Tax, Legal, Finance, and Stock Administration. Our clients possess expertise in their functional area. The expertise they do not possess is how to put it all together and keep it up to date.

Have you ever asked yourself these questions?

  • We have a few expatriates but we've handled them on a one-off basis. How do we get the process under control without creating an administrative monster?
  • We have chronic payroll issues. Every year we struggle to issue W-2s for our mobile employees and frequently have to prepare amended W-2s. How can we do it right the first time?
  • Our outside advisers have provided detailed tax and legal advice to ensure our global stock plans are compliant in other countries. But we don't have a clue about how to establish a workable process to meet these requirements. How can we reconcile the technical requirements with practical implementation issues?
  • We have a large mobile work force (expatriates, permanent transfers, and business travelers) that participate in various stock plans. We don't have the technology to adequately track the movement of these employees and struggle to report the income to each appropriate country. How do we figure out how big the problem is and get our arms around it?
  • We have a problem accounting for the tax advances and hypothetical tax withholding for mobile employees. How do we get control of the accounting entries?
  • We need to select a new vendor. How can we make sure we make the right decision and don't get surprised?
  • We cannot keep up with the legislative alerts we get from various sources. There are a lot of them and sometimes the alerts conflict with each other. How do we know what is correct, what is relevant for us and what action we should take?

Our clients are motivated to:

  • Develop and implement sustainable solutions
  • Do things properly
  • Spend their money wisely
  • Take action
