Corporate & International Tax

Cross border groups now carry a heavier tax burden than at any point in a generation. A global minimum tax, sharper transfer pricing scrutiny and faster moving disputes mean the cost of a weak position has risen. We give you a clear, defensible answer, owned by one senior specialist from first call to final filing.

Why it matters now

Pillar Two compliance is now in effect.

Pillar Two is now in force across many jurisdictions, and the first GloBE Information Returns for the 2024 year fall due in the middle of 2026. Compliance depends on data that most groups have never had to assemble before, drawn from tax, finance, legal and systems at once. The groups that prepare early avoid both a top up tax surprise and a last quarter scramble.

Common questions

What is Pillar Two and does it apply to my group?

Pillar Two is the OECD global minimum tax. It generally applies to multinational groups with consolidated revenue of EUR 750 million or more, requiring a minimum effective tax rate of 15 percent in every jurisdiction and a GloBE Information Return. We assess scope, model exposure and prepare the filing.

When are the first GloBE Information Returns due?

For many calendar year groups the first returns covering the 2024 fiscal year fall due in the middle of 2026. The data demands are significant, so we begin readiness well ahead of the deadline.

Can you defend a transfer pricing challenge?

Yes. We design defensible policies and documentation, and we lead the response when a tax authority opens an enquiry, through to settlement or litigation.

Who will actually do my work?

A senior specialist with at least fifteen years of experience. The person who wins the work does the work. You will not be handed to a junior team after the first meeting.
