Tax and Structuring

Enabling Predictability and Avoiding Risk

Tax is a decisive factor in how transactions are structured, how businesses operate, and how risk is managed — especially in cross-border settings. We help clients anticipate and resolve tax issues with a practical, business-driven approach: identifying what matters early, avoiding adverse consequences, and defending client interests when disputes arise.

Awake, listening and reflect upon that. Respond quickly with suggestions, which is utterly important for entrepreneurs.

Leading Experience and Expertise

HPP provides extensive legal assistance on taxation issues arising from corporate transactions, business operations, tax procedures and tax disputes. We advise both as standalone tax counsel and as part of integrated, multidisciplinary teams supporting broader transactions, disputes and other commercial assignments.

Our work frequently involves international aspects, including cross-border group structures and Finnish tax issues within group operations. We also have market-leading expertise in supporting insurers in underwriting tax insurance and warranty & indemnity insurance policies covering Finnish tax risks and transactions.

Grounded, Solution-Oriented Delivery

Our goal is to deliver solution-oriented tax advice grounded in a clear understanding of the client’s business and objectives. We focus on identifying the key tax issues in proposed operations and structures and often carry out a pre-emptive evaluation of tax treatment before risks materialize. When disputes arise, we defend clients’ interests — and where appropriate, work constructively with the tax authorities to reach workable outcomes and ensure high-quality, solution-oriented dialogue.
