Reporting and maintaining your results is only one part of what is really required. Traditional bookkeeping is historical based, looking at results compared to market, or reporting annual, quarterly or monthly performance. PLANNING & FORECASTING Reporting and maintaining your results is only one part of what is really required. Traditional bookkeeping is historical based, looking at results compared to market, or reporting annual, quarterly or monthly performance. But a huge part of a true CFO Function must be forward looking for it to add real value to your business. Preparing a budget should not just be based on your previous year actuals, then accounting for inflation. A “bottom-up” budget should always be done, and using Rawlinson & Hunter Singapore, we will provide an in depth analysis of your cost base, market conditions, business plans, cash, customer and financing position to ensure that a realistic, target driven budget is prepared. We are a partner for the long term, and will advise and assist in the coming years to help you achieve, and exceed this target. A traditional budget will only get you one or two years into the future. The critical difference between those companies that do well and those that excel is that the majority have a 5 or 10 year plan. Rawlinson & Hunter Singapore is uniquely placed to work with you and your team to understand where you want to be in 5 and 10 years time, how you want to get there, and build an innovative solution to achieve this goal.

Our emphasis on client relationships has enabled us to build a considerable reputation in this area. ESTATE PLANNING Estate planning demands a detailed appreciation of the circumstances of each client and the flexibility to respond to their wishes. Our emphasis on client relationships has enabled us to build a considerable reputation in this area. Regular reviews of the estate and detailed illustrative calculations of potential liabilities keep our clients aware of opportunities available to them, while our international focus allows us to advise clients with assets in multiple jurisdictions. Frequent discussions with the client and the client’s family ensure that we are aware of their wishes as they develop and can act in their best interests. For UK connected clients, the inheritance regime provides excellent opportunities to plan estates and protect family wealth through the use of lifetime gifts, trusts, family limited partnerships and careful consideration of wills. Our expertise in tax planning means that we are an excellent choice for clients wishing to draft their wills in a tax efficient manner. Our partners are also experienced in acting as executors, alone or with family members or lawyers.

Companies and partnerships are flexible vehicles that can be used and integrated into a wide variety of asset management and asset protection structures and tax planning structures. COMPANIES & PARTNERSHIPS Companies and partnerships are flexible vehicles that can be used and integrated into a wide variety of asset management and asset protection structures and tax planning structures. They are sometimes used on their own but more commonly used together with other vehicles. The combination with a trust, for example, often provides more effective protection as well as greater flexibility. Many jurisdictions are introducing new legislation designed for international business needs and the types and nature of companies and partnerships available in those jurisdictions should be considered as well as other matters such as infrastructure and stability. With offices in many of the jurisdictions featuring specialised company and partnership laws, we are well placed to meet most client requirements. We provide a comprehensive range of corporate and partnership services and are able to assist with all matters relating to the establishment, administration and management of companies and partnerships in all the major jurisdictions. As we are completely independent and we are not tied to any other service provider, we are able to offer our clients unfettered choice in selecting third party providers and working with other professional advisers. We aim to offer the highest level of personal service as our culture is all about building long term relationships. Many of our clients have been with us, not just for years, but for generations.

Prosperity should bring freedom, but more often the opposite is the case. The greater the wealth, the greater the responsibilities and the rules that seem to restrict the enjoyment of them. Especially taxes. ADVISORY Prosperity should bring freedom, but more often the opposite is the case. The greater the wealth, the greater the responsibilities and the rules that seem to restrict the enjoyment of them. Especially taxes. Our skill lies in maximising the benefits that wealth can bring, by protecting it and allowing it to do what it was always supposed to do – to be enjoyed by the individuals who own it. Our offices probably contain a greater concentration of international advisory expertise than any other firm, anywhere in the world. Our reputation as experts in this field has brought us family and corporate clients in every continent, almost entirely by personal recommendation. We will need to get to know you, your family, your business and your individual aims and requirements. You will need to get to know us and trust us. We can then provide you with a solution uniquely suited to your situation and to your needs. Our Specialists
