RECENT EXPERIENCE
- Liquidation and administration advisory and compliance work. Dominic works closely with K3TA’s sister company Quantuma which has a large restructuring and insolvency division. Through working with Quantuma he has gained experience on many different cases from high profile through to smaller members’ voluntary liquidations. Each case tends to have a quirk, and he has found that having a good understanding of how the rules apply to a company in administration or liquidation has enabled the team to ensure that clients do not overpay corporation tax.
- Working closely with the corporate finance teams in the K3 Group (K3 Advantage, Quantuma and the KBS companies) as well as other referrers and direct, he often gives tax advice on corporate transactions including:
- Business reorganisations and reconstructions: Simplifying complex corporate structures, preparing part of a business for sale and facilitating the split of a business or group between shareholders.
- Succession planning and exit routes for owner-managed businesses: Sales to Employee Ownership Trusts, management buyouts, family buyouts and company share buybacks.
- International tax. This can be advising a growing UK business on the tax consequences of expanding outside of the UK, related to the consequences of raising finance from outside of the UK, or advising a non-UK business on entering the UK market. He gives UK corporate tax advice and has a good understanding of international tax principles such as transfer pricing, corporate tax residency and double taxation agreements. He also often plays a project management role engaging with non-UK advisors and/or specialists in other areas of tax.
