Tax services

We consider the needs of your business and the government with the end in view of upholding what is right.

Tax is a significant cost in business. As such, properly managing and controlling inherent tax risks is a must. And to keep up with tax developments and have a clearer understanding, top businessmen seek professional tax advice to help them manage tax risk, control costs, and seize tax planning opportunities.

To develop a comprehensive tax strategy for your business, we cover various considerations relevant to your particular business, i.e., industry, markets, finance, economics, and government regulations. We take a consultative approach rather than focus on compliance to identify all your risks.

Increasingly, companies require a variety of accounting, tax, and business services to manage risks and gain competitive advantage. Our tax professionals can provide these diverse disciplines to help you minimize tax liabilities and meet compliance obligations. We can be your advocates with tax authorities to support a tax position that will work to your advantage. And we can give you tailored, implementable and defensible tax planning structures.

 

Responsiveness unlike any other

We specially package business and tax advisory services for our clients based on their needs. This is a better way of handling tax compliance that makes us achieve their business objectives.

We have made it easier for companies, whether large or small, to lessen their tax problems and meet tax compliance obligations.

We deal with main taxes affecting all businesses, and those in difficult areas such as international tax, expatriate tax, and value-added tax.

Our tax colleagues in other PwC firms worldwide work with us in giving professional and timely advice on tax issues that crop up in every area where there is an international transaction.

Future-proofing family businesses: Strategies for success across generations

Last month, our firm gathered family business leaders from various generations to share insights and explore strategies for navigating today’s rapidly evolving landscape. Family businesses remain a cornerstone of the global economy; in the Philippines, over half of publicly listed companies are backed by family offices. As these businesses diversify and increasingly invest in entrepreneurs and startups, their influence begins to extend beyond their own enterprises, creating a broader impact across various sectors.

A refresher on taxes for campaign contributions

I was browsing through the envelopes in my mailbox when I found an unsolicited letter that had been sitting there for some time. I wondered how the sender got my home address. It turned out to be a greeting from a city councilor. It did not look like the usual political ad, but the name and message of the sender remained in my mind. Indeed, some politicians have been preparing for the elections and reaching out to potential voters even before the campaign period began. Apart from the actual elections, one of the important things that they should have in mind are the tax aspects of campaign contributions.
