John has over 30 years’ experience in assisting high net worth individuals and international companies with their global financial and tax structuring, including the use of specialist asset protection and income repatriation techniques. He was previously a senior partner at a big 4 accounting firm in London and head of their inbound international tax practice.
John’s clients have included family offices of privately owned multinational corporations as well as wealthy entrepreneurs based in the UK and overseas. He is currently an adviser to international businesses based in Europe as well as assisting high net worth entertainers and sportspeople with complex offshore tax matters.
John’s specialist skills enable him to work closely with Vardags’ clients to ensure that all tax aspects of their cases are properly considered, and any opportunities to enhance their position can be taken into account in financial proceedings. He is particularly skilled in assessing the effects of the ever changing landscape of the international tax system, including the ongoing focus by the OECD and UN on global tax avoidance, the need to comply with stricter reporting requirements, and the impact of these to Vardags’ clients.
We offer a free consultation to suitable clients, typically those where the family's net assets are in excess of £1m or the combined income is in excess of £150,000
