Tax is a business risk, and like all risks, should be managed. However, navigating the continually evolving Australian tax landscape can be challenging. No single advisor can be expected to stay up to date with all developments and know everything about tax.

This is where your Nexia Tax Alliance specialist comes in.

The team delivering Tax Alliance is comprised of specialists familiar with the specific elements of tax. Whether it’s trust matters, applying CGT concessions, property transactions, selling business assets, business exit, research and development, business growth, structuring, residency, position papers, or any number of tax-related enquiries, a Tax Alliance specialist has the solution your client needs.

Our specialist team is passionate about tax and aims to spread tax knowledge and help our members find solutions to manage tax risk for their clients.

Tax matters, and that’s why Tax Alliance is the solution you have been searching for.

Membership benefits

We conduct several tax training sessions per year, which provide relevant and practical information on a range of current tax and business topics.

Nexia Australia’s Tax Alliance members are entitled to have unlimited employees from their firm attend each training session, which will count as Continuing Professional Development (CPD) hours.

If you encounter a complex tax issue, it may be helpful to speak with your local Nexia Australia tax specialist. Our phone and email service provides unlimited access to discuss complex tax matters.

Although verbal responses cannot be relied on as advice, if the issue requires written advice, we can provide a fee proposal.

Written advice may be warranted when your client is confronted with a significant tax issue. This advice is tailored to meet your client’s specific needs and risk profile. The following scenarios are typically matters where a client should seek written advice:

  • Qualifying for and applying the CGT small business relief concessions to a business or asset sale, including extracting the funds from a trust or company
  • Sell the business assets or sell the company?
  • Property transactions, including income tax, CGT, GST and main residence exemption
  • More complicated trust losses or Division 7A scenarios
  • Restructures, mergers and introducing or exiting owners of a business
  • International tax issues
  • Winding up entities

Our experienced tax advisors possess deep technical knowledge and a global network of resources, ensuring that we have the insight, advice, and support needed to provide advice on the full range of potential tax risks.

We understand how trust underpins everything Tax Alliance stands for, so we ensure we have a zero-tolerance approach to client solicitation.

How we deliver tax advice to your client is entirely up to you – some practitioners prefer that we have no contact with their clients, whereas others may prefer that we liaise directly with them instead.
