Tax advisory & compliance

Our financial services tax team can provide both tax compliance and tax consulting services across the entire breadth of the financial services sector. In particular, our tax expertise covers:

  • aviation leasing and finance; 
  • banking; 
  • insurance; 
  • investment management; 
  • funds; 
  • securitisation structures; and 
  • Public Private Partnership structures.

The Grant Thornton international network means that we can provide tax advice at both local and international level, particularly important given the globalisation of the financial services sector. Our key selling point is the availability of the senior team members to provide clear, concise and timely advice.

We have particular expertise in the funds sector and have advised clients on appropriate tax structures for Irish fund vehicles. Recent months have seen a significant increase in the number of foreign domiciled funds looking to relocate to Ireland.

We also have a significant presence in the aviation leasing market and have advised several large clients on the tax implications of locating their aviation leasing business in Ireland.
