Foreign Direct Investment

Empowering you to achieve your global business needs.

The international tax landscape is constantly evolving. Whether you are a well-established business or embarking on your global business journey, our experienced team at PwC Ireland is here to help. We will guide you through the complexities of global and local tax developments, working alongside you to create sustainable solutions tailored to your specific business needs.

Navigating global business obligations

As the international tax landscape evolves, businesses need access to experienced professionals and solutions they can trust. At PwC Ireland, we offer comprehensive support for inbound investment into Ireland and the European Union (EU), as well as mergers and acquisitions.

Market Access

Companies with a global footprint or those looking to expand their activities must strategically position their operations in the most efficient jurisdictions. This strategic positioning allows them to access international markets seamlessly and enhance their supply chain capabilities with minimal disruption. However, managing market access can be complex — particularly from a tax perspective.

Expanding commercially into new jurisdictions often brings about significant tax complexities. The rapidly changing regulatory landscape further complicates companies’ ability to meet their international tax compliance obligations. Achieving commercial growth and expanding into new markets while remaining compliant is essential for developing a sustainable business model and safeguarding your company’s reputation.

 

Our Foreign Direct Investment services

Inward Investment

We specialise in assisting businesses with all aspects of investments in and through Ireland, catering to companies of all sizes. We support clients on various inward investment projects, including establishing entities and operations in Ireland, expanding existing operations and making acquisitions and divestments. Whether you are making an acquisition or need to integrate it into your existing business model, we can guide you every step of the way.

We leverage our global PwC network to support companies on these projects. Specifically, we provide due diligence services to assist both buyers and vendors in preparing detailed tax reviews. We help companies structure acquisitions and understand how their corporate structure will look post-merger or acquisition, considering tax efficiency and aligning substance with the business model. Additionally, we offer assistance with the tax elements of legal transaction documents.
