Jonathan Pilcher is a Managing Director in FTI Consulting’s European Tax Advisory practice who leads the Large and Complex Corporate Tax Advisory service line. Jonathan has a wealth of experience advising multinational groups and private equity funds on complex international tax issues including legislative changes arising as part of the OECD’s Base Erosion and Profiting Shifting (“BEPS”) initiative.
Jonathan has advised several multinationals regarding cross-border transactions involving both debt instruments and intellectual property. He has also assisted clients in understanding the implications of changes arising out of the BEPS reports published in 2015.
Currently, Jonathan is monitoring developments on the BEPS 2.0 initiative and the UK implementation of those recommendations to help multinational groups prepare for global minimum taxation.
Jonathan has worked on transactions where comparing the tax attributes of a number of holding company and intellectual property regimes has been crucial. Through these projects, he has developed an understanding of the factors which influence the attractiveness of a tax regime and the characteristics of the tax regimes of a number of key jurisdictions.
