Business Structuring

In our experience, the majority of businesses have grown without ever seriously considering how their structure could help to minimise their tax and maximise their asset protection and income distribution.

When was the last time you had your structure reviewed? If the answer is more than two years ago, then it is likely that you are currently losing money & value.

Are your major assets protected by your current business structure? Where does ownership of your intellectual property currently sit? Do you have plans for potential future sale, funding, investment, joint venture, or partnership - and if so, do you have the best structure for these plans?

These are crucial questions that must be given appropriate consideration at this phase of your business. Our team provides the latest expertise in this area, with an integrated approach from each of its disciplines, to ensure you have the right mix of asset protection and financial advantage.

Our corporate/commercial team canĀ  provide sound advice on the most appropriate business formation and structure to suit your business activity, including:

  • Companies
  • Unit and discretionary trusts
  • Partnerships
  • Incorporated and unincorporated joint ventures
  • Managed investment schemes requiring registration under the Corporations Act

Not only can we advise on your existing structure, but we can review that structure to ensure that, from taxation and other implications, it provides the most commercially viable vehicle for your business.

The team at Access are experienced in reviewing and building structures for small to medium sized businesses, through to large corporates. For whatever size of business, our advice will always be focussed on two main elements - asset protection, and income distribution.

Whether you are preparing your business for a future sale, looking to acquire a business, enter into a joint venture, taking on new business partners, dissolving a business arrangement, preparing for financing, looking to export, or simply feel it is time to review the adequacy of your current structure - the team at Access will find a way to assist your business to achieve its aims.
