Alexander Beesley

Solicitor, Bird & Bird

I regularly act for clients ranging from entrepreneurs and investors to large multinationals, financial institutions, and corporations across all the firm's sectors, including Energy & Utilities, Financial Services, and Technology & Communications. With clients in these spaces often operating on a multi-jurisdictional level, my advice is usually provided within an international framework.

I have a particular focus on assisting clients on M&A and financing deals, corporate structuring and re-structuring, as part of their plans to expand their businesses both in the UK and internationally. My expertise also extends to advising individuals and corporations on employment tax issues, particularly in relation to the IR35 regime.

Tax implications of international joint ventures

Practice Notes

This Practice Note considers the key tax issues arising when structuring, operating and terminating an international joint venture, meaning a structure where either the JV vehicle or one or more of the joint venture parties is non-UK resident for tax purposes. It includes considerations relating to diverted profits tax (DPT), the tax efficiency of both debt and equity funding structures, including withholding taxes and the corporate interest restriction, and the availability of loss reliefs. This Practice Note is produced in partnership with Zoe Feller and Alexander Beesley of Bird & Bird LLP.
