Avanzia Taxand promoted to Tier 1 in publication poll

Maltese tax firm Avanzia Taxand has landed the Tier 1 ranking in the International Tax Review’s Transactional Tax Survey.

The survey gauges the opinion of tax executives, officials and advisors on tax firms’ advisory strengths, across 45 jurisdictions.

Taxand, the world’s largest organisation of independent tax advisors to multinational businesses, also moved up the rankings in the ITR Transactional Tax Survey for the fifth year running.

Malta is among 78 per cent of Taxand countries recognised in this survey – 31 countries retained the ranking of the previous year and others making it to a higher Tier.

“Scoring good results in the ITR Transactional Tax Survey is always a source of great satisfaction for the whole team behind Avanzia Taxand,” managing director Walter Cutajar said.

The survey results demonstrate Taxand’s increased market recognition for delivering transactional tax excellence to multinationals in Malta and around the world. This recognition follows the recent global expansion of Taxand, with both Australia and South Africa joining the organisation, bringing the total number of Taxand locations to 50.

Avanzia Taxand was set up in 2005 and boasts a team of specialised graduates and experienced professionals in accounting, financial services, company law and taxation. The firm has access to a global network of leading tax advisers through its membership in Taxand.

Mr Cutajar added that this award will continue to increase the firm’s visibility within the tax and financial services sector, especially among international clients with whom Avanzia Taxand already enjoys a successful relationship.

Taxand is a global network of leading tax advisors from independent member firms in 50 countries.
