Services for Accounting and Law firms

Our firm provides service to the wider accounting and law industry by assisting small to 2nd tier accounting firms in providing transfer pricing services to their clients.

We currently performs a significant amount of work for second tier / suburban accounting and law firms on a regular basis and can tailor our services to clients’ needs and budget.

Providing education and training

Shannon Smit, Director of our firm, has extensive experience as the lecturer of the Transfer Pricing Subject of the Master of International Taxation program offered by the Law School at the University of Melbourne.

Our firm has been appointed by CPA Australia to train the ATO tax executives as part of the ATO’s expert training series. We also lead training sessions for CFOs and Tax Teams of large companies and small multinationals enterprises across Australia and for accounting firms with no transfer pricing expertise.

Assisting with implementation

Our firm aims to provide not just technical transfer pricing advice, but really ‘roll your sleeves’ up and implement it within the client.

Our team can become an extension of finance/tax teams where we are copied on ‘internal’ emails to ensure the company does not overlook any transfer pricing requirements. Clients feel comfortable to call or email at any time with questions without the fear of an excessive cost.
