Close by the resilient organisation
We live and work in a world where digitisation is faster than ever, sustainability is high on the agenda, national and international regulations are becoming more complex and skilled labour is scarce.
Stay future-proof through business restructuring
Restructuring helps keep a company future-proof. Tax optimisation can minimise tax liabilities, strengthening the financial position and contributing to a solid balance sheet. Effective leadership and governance also play a crucial role in ensuring compliance and good governance.
All this contributes to a sustainable future, where assets are protected and optimally positioned to achieve success.
The need for sustainable business
Sustainable business is no longer a choice: it is a necessity
A necessity that brings new reporting requirements and other challenges. Consider the implementation of ESG standards and compliance with the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) and strict environmental legislation, where CO2 reduction and energy efficiency must be paramount. In addition, the European Natura 2000 network requires careful compliance with rules to protect biodiversity, which in turn may result in restrictions on certain business activities.
Sustainability also offers commercial opportunities
To make the most of these opportunities, being compliant is the bottom line. As a good and sustainable employer, employers should not only address equal pay, diversity and inclusion as a theme, but actually anchor them in the company. Being ready for a sustainable future requires a proactive approach. It is important to stay sharp on the wording of claims to avoid greenwashing.
The challenges of working and doing business across borders
Doing business internationally can ensure growth and expansion, provided careful planning and legal expertise are used. It is essential to be aware of international trade laws, tax treaties, labour regulations and pension legislation. Moreover, differences in contract law and intellectual property law can create unexpected obstacles.
Does it involve a cross-border transaction? Then additional challenges come into play, including understanding and complying with different legal and tax regimes.
Digital opportunities and challenges for a resilient business
Digitalisation offers companies great opportunities: from business innovation to harnessing algorithms for accurate diagnostics. New products and services are brought to market that make life better and more enjoyable.
Of course, this also involves legal challenges. Companies need to comply with complex privacy legislation such as the AVG and the new DORA regulation for digital operational resilience. Moreover, it is necessary to enhance cyber security and protect the business through robust data security.
For a smooth and compliant digital business transformation, it is essential to stay abreast of technology trends, enter into secure contracts, comply with privacy laws and protect intellectual property. In addition, clear governance, with internal policies and responsibilities, is crucial to stay compliant with all regulations.
