Business Services

One of Murray Smith’s key strengths is our knowledge and experience of working with owner managed businesses.

Our service offers sound and practical advice on all the issues faced today by the business owner. Direct contact with a Murray Smith partner, combined with the resources of our support staff to assist in areas such as management accounts, audit and tax, means that we have we have built the reputation of a specialist in this area of business. Indeed many of our clients are referred to us by local and corporate banks, underlining the confidence that other professionals have in Murray Smith.

We offer an innovative and dynamic approach aimed at maximising personal and corporate wealth.

Full Year Round Service

We can provide a year round service at an agreed annual fee. The service is tailored to individual needs, but would typically include:

regular management accounts and advisory meetings
personal and corporate tax planning
telephone “hot line” support throughout the year
annual accounts and audit

Practical Support and Advice

Many of our clients choose not to employ a full time “in house” accountant but do require immediate access to pro-active financial advice throughout the year. This support and advice is provided by the Murray Smith partner responsible for the account. Direct and regular contact with the partner to discuss the major issues, ideas and decisions is a key part of our service.

It is our job to take the time to gain a full understanding of your business and of your personal and corporate objectives. From this basis, we work with you in the development and implementation of your business and financial strategy. Detailed awareness of clients’ affairs via regular contact during the year greatly enhances the opportunities for us to provide practical business guidance.

Regular Management Accounts

Management reports, which provide the detailed information needed to assess business performance are vital to many organisations. We have a team of support staff experienced in extracting relevant information from business systems and, from this, monthly or quarterly management accounts are prepared for many of our clients. The reports are tailored to specific company needs and provide directors with a set of key indicators by which business performance can be gauged.

Tax Planning

We have a specialist tax department able to advise on the whole range of taxation issues which your business may encounter.
