How a joined-up review of structure, reliefs and personal tax could work.
A hypothetical example of the kind of work Singletree may do with owner-managed creative and professional services firms.

The challenge
In this scenario two founder-directors carry significant personal tax exposure, the studio has not assessed R&D eligibility on its tooling work, and the corporate structure has not been reviewed for some time.
Our approach
- 01Example approach: review shareholdings and dividend policy in light of current legislation.
- 02Assess eligibility for R&D claims under the merged scheme and support any compliant filings.
- 03Consider pension and EMI options for the senior team where appropriate.
- 04Build personal tax plans for both founders alongside the corporate review.
