As a client based outside of the UK, you need to be confident that you and your company are in compliance with UK laws and regulations. Whether you are a multi-national organisation with a UK subsidiary or an individual operating through a UK company, you need someone to guide you through your statutory compliance requirements in plain English.
Our experts have years of experience in looking after clients who are not familiar with the UK system and guiding them as their UK operation grows and expands. Elemental CoSec are members of the UK Advisory Network, that is run by the UK government and recognises our specialism in assisting international businesses with setting up in the UK.
In those areas where we may not be able to provide support directly, we have an extensive network of contacts who provide a useful source of introductions where you need specialised support. For example, we can provide contacts and introductions for opening a UK bank account, which can be particularly difficult for international clients.
Please get in touch with us if you would like to discuss your specific needs and we will always be happy to have a conversation.
