We’ve joined the International Sports Tax Association as a UK partner

We’re pleased to have joined the International Sports Tax Association (ISTA) as a Partner Firm for the UK.

ISTA is a global community of professional advisers specialising in the sports industry. Their aims are:

• Making it easy to find qualified tax advisers and other complimentary advisers
• Providing global resources and research on international taxation in sport created by and for members
• Encouraging members and associates to refer work across industries, countries and areas of specialism
• Confirming any professional qualifications with an applicant’s governing body or association before approving membership

Our tax team’s advice to clients in the sporting world – including international footballers, rugby players and cricketers – involves the structuring of individuals’ investments and managing of their personal affairs. We help to manage clients’ relationships with HMRC who are increasingly focused on taxpayers whose records are handled by the Affluent and High Net Worth Units.
