Main Areas of Practice:

Tax:

Tax is becoming increasingly complex and multi-layered. The continuous globalisation and permanent new regulations hold tremendous challenges from a tax perspective. Thus, specialist consulting is becoming indispensable. Tax consulting is the core competence of WTS Global. The broad spectrum of tax services combined with a no audit policy enables them to provide integrated tax advice rather than insular solutions. All member firms are bound to render the full set of tax services as a minimum catalogue on a national level. Their teams consist of specialists with many years of experience in international consulting companies as well as in industry and the tax administration sector. Thus, they ensure a practice-oriented approach which enables them to provide high quality and tailor-made services in the field of tax law. As an added advantage, their comprehensive and international global network gives them the requisite extensive experience necessary in steering significant multinational projects. The tax advisory practice at WTS Global be it compliance or high-end structuring is complemented by Tax Digital which is headquartered at the premises of its founding member, WTS Germany. In 2024, more than 250 experts worked in Tax Digital.

Consulting:

Every day, managers have to make decisions that might have a significant impact on the business success. This is not always easy – nowadays, companies are exposed to dynamically changing markets, increasing competition and rapid technological changes more than ever. Thus, the general conditions for a decision can change very rapidly. WTS Global supports in decision making as well as in developing and implementing solutions, enabling its clients to successfully compete in the market and further promote their company. The WTS Global consulting approach puts a clear focus on the financial sector in the environment of classic CFO functions and all connected tasks. Inter alia, Transaction Services, Financial Due Diligence, Valuation, IFRS as well as IPO Consulting represent core services. The network’s service portfolio includes project consulting as well as co-sourcing of commercial functions. Their team consists of experienced practitioners and specialists with sound economic expertise.
