About us
Originally established in 2004 to deal predominantly with Central and Eastern Europe (CEE), we have hands-on experience in managing tax and legal issues and structuring deals in almost all of the 27 CEE countries. With the ongoing globalisation, our experience has extended to Western Europe, Australia, North America, and beyond. Where useful, we also work with low-tax jurisdictions all over the globe. We have kept our name cee tax to stay true to our roots.
We have a large network of trusted individuals and companies that we work with in Central and Eastern Europe and globally. The international networks we are a member of are non-exclusive and we do not accept nor pay referral fees or retrocession payments from or to the firms we work with. This means that we can choose and work only with the best.
Two of our partners are members of the Society of Trust and Estate Practitioners (STEP). We are also members of the following international networks:
Ethical business practice
We consider integrity crucial to building client relationships, and to our reputation. We embrace the concept of a unified, ethically sound approach to doing business towards our clients, employees, suppliers, and the community at large. For our clients, this also means that our work and the advice and structures and scenarios we recommend are always within the laws, rules, and regulations applicable to our clients.
We perform all work and advice for our clients conscientiously and diligently in a timely and cost-effective manner and we ensure our continuing competency through appropriate professional development. We act with honesty and integrity, including ethically handling actual or apparent conflicts of interest between our clients or with our own financial or commercial interests.
Our connections
While we offer integrated tax law services there are some areas where you may require additional specialist advice. Having built an extensive network of contacts, we are able to introduce other advisers where appropriate. We cooperate with the best local tax and legal advisers in Central and Eastern Europe and globally.
We will also work with our other contacts, respecting of course the relationships you may have with other advisers. We see this as key to building a trusted relationship with you.
Generally, we would not just provide you with a name and contact details of potential other service providers for any project, but to closely work together with trusted individuals in our professional network with whom we have established an actual working relationship.
Our global network specifically includes providers of the following services:
- Lawyers
- Tax advisors
- Auditors
- Valuators
- Trustee companies
- Asset managers
- Financial advisors
- Executive recruiters
- Property advisors
Confidentality, privacy and security
At the core of our culture is our commitment to information security. The utmost emphasis is placed on the privacy, confidentiality, and security of any personal and business information.
