Overview

For individuals and families with ties to Russia, personal assets rarely sit in one country — and the tax, CFC and currency-control rules of each interact. Cross-border asset planning is about structuring holdings coherently and planning succession so that what you intend actually happens across jurisdictions, without triggering avoidable tax or compliance failures.

We structure personal holdings, align them with CFC and currency-control obligations, and plan succession across the countries involved, working alongside your home-country lawyers and advisers. Because the rules change, we keep the structure under review rather than treating it as a one-off.
