An illustrative instance of this client-centric ethos is highlighted in a collaborative effort between Shajani CPA and a technology industry entity that underwent a highly intricate international restructuring.

This partnership began with the tech entity, originally a Canadian company, undergoing acquisition by a US-based corporation. Subsequently, the company was once again sold, this time to a Canadian shareholder. The intricacies were compounded by low-tax jurisdiction companies intertwined with US and Canadian ownership.

Due to the shift in ownership triggering international nuances and considerations like the US inversion tax rule, the transactions inadvertently elevated tax exposures unprotected by international tax treaties.

The multifaceted solution necessitated a comprehensive reorganization of the entire structure. Shajani CPA's expertise shone as they devised strategies to minimize tax exposure in the present and the future with Canadian investors and potential US tax implications.
