As governments around the world continue to spend tax dollars with little restraint and government deficits accordingly continue to rise relative to GDP, the tax net gets wider year by year. Corporations have a fiduciary duty to their shareholders to minimize these taxes to maximize returns. Individuals who have worked hard to build their own wealth may wish to shelter their income or their assets from tax liabilities. Working together with our affiliated law firm, Timothy Loh LLP, and tax advisers in those jurisdictions where these corporations or individuals are based or where their assets are situated, Timothy Loh Corporate Services can help to identify strategies to avoid or limit tax liabilities or to lengthen the period of time over which such tax liabilities may bite and to implement those strategies.

Corporate structuring aims to put in place an optimal structure for an organization, taking into account amongst other things the need to limit legal liability, to minimizes taxes, to ensure efficient deployment of capital and to ensure an easy means of returning capital and distributing profits. Corporate structuring requires considerable forethought as inherently, corporate structuring looks to future contingencies which must be anticipated.
