Accounting and Tax

From extensive experience managing the accounting and tax concerns of major gaming operators, we have become adept at providing advisory support at all stages of your company's lifecycle, from initial structuring and licence applications through to reviews of existing processes, reporting and targeted efficiency improvements. We provide the following ad-hoc services:

• Supporting the initial structuring or restructuring of your group to optimise your tax, VAT and duty position. Find out more about our corporate structuring services here.
• Compilation of financial projections to include within licence applications to gaming regulators, so that you can rest assured they stand up to scrutiny. Find out more about our licence application support services here.
• VAT and gambling duty registrations and ad-hoc advice on compliance and reporting for these obligations.
• Set up of Xero online accounting software.

We can and do support internal accounting teams in their duties. However in many cases, operators have found it is overall more commercially effective to outsource these functions to our team, getting the benefits of highly experienced staff with a carefully streamlined workflow and software stack. We provide the following ongoing services:

• Preparing financial information, including bookkeeping, annual financial statements, business plans, forecasts etc.
• Preparation and provision of management accounts.
• Gambling duty returns, including review and submission of returns.
• VAT compliance, including preparation and submission of quarterly returns. This includes consideration of the VAT implications of intra-group recharge invoicing.
• Dealing with routine inspections and queries raised by the relevant authorities into VAT and gambling duty matters.
• Preparation and filing of annual tax returns.
• Assisting auditors in the preparation of annual audited accounts.
• All of the above powered by Xero online accounting software, allowing you 24/7/365 access to live financial information.
