Professional focus
We offer our clients top-quality services from an internationally networked yet medium-sized firm of tax advisors and auditors that is rooted in the region in keeping with our motto, “Because a task can oftenbe performed in a number of ways we don’t stop thinking out the alternatives after finding the first solution.”
Tax advisory services
Tax advisory is shaping the future, tax advisory is a matter of trust. Weview it as a forward-looking activity to shape the course of future events. This applies to us both in the tax advisory department but also to our standard tasks, such as book-keeping, compiling financial statements, preparing tax returns and payroll accounting.
We work for you using the latest tools to provide you, for instance, with digital access to your data, information and tailored analyses.
WKS advises you on all issues related to choosing the right legal form tooptimize your tax structure, selecting the right corporate structure to reach your goals, advising your subsidiaries in foreign countries, advising you on tax issues, succession issues and your estate or clarifying cross-border VAT issues.
Auditing
Auditing is more than a statutory duty. Auditing is a team task. In an increasingly demanding regulatory environment, the task of compiling financial statements that comply with the regulatory requirements is becoming an increasingly complex corporate task that poses major challenges.
We offer you audit-related advisory services in keeping with these requirements, paired with a reliable, professional and top-flight audit based on a spirit of partnership and collaboration.
The WKS portfolio extends from the audit of separate financial statementsand consolidated financial statements, the audit or review of interim financial statements and special purpose reporting frameworks, through tomaking the adjustments needed to comply with interim reporting requirements, assisting with takeovers and divestments as well as performing business valuations.
Business consulting
Good ideas are an essential element of business success. The most conducive environment for good ideas is a meeting between equals. WKS stands at your side, happy to contribute the experience gathered from over 50 years of collaboration supporting other companies with their entrepreneurial endeavors.
WKS supports and advises you, for example, in the field of acquisitions and divestments, project and capex financing, comparing offers of financeand negotiating loans, business rescues or setting up cost accounting andinstalling modern reporting systems.
Legal advisory
There are enough problems, but problems are also a source of opportunity. Tax advisory, auditing and business consulting are all closely associatedwith legal advisory. An integrated forward-looking solution is often onlypossible with the assistance of legal advisory at strategic points.
The legal advisory offers from WKS extend, for example, from company law,real estate law, construction law and planning regulations, through to labor law, rental agreements, residential ownership law and family law.
“If you want to succeed you should strike out on new paths, rather than travel the worn paths of accepted success.”
