Firm Description
The Advisory
Horizons provides global corporate solutions for investors to thrive in unfamiliar jurisdictions -such as China. Namely, our professionals formulate legal, accountancy, and finance frameworks to launch cross-border investments. From pre-investment to daily management and ultimately winding up, Horizons’ services enable businesses to operate with full compliance.
International Team
Equally, Horizons recognises that cultural differences between jurisdictions can act as significant deal-breakers in cross-border transactions. Especially under unfamiliar grounds, investors can face challenges in deciphering the varying regional, sociocultural, political, and religious differences that may be directly or indirectly at play in country-by-country legal systems and their unique processes. As a result, Horizons leverages an international team as one team to succeed in bridging the cultural and language gaps for clients.
Working local to deliver global solutions
With over 40 years of experience in cross-border transactions, Horizons employs a localisation approach. Specifically, the international team spans over 40 countries and regions to serve clients in their local country or region. The local team act as the designated liaison for clients and collaborate with the international offices to shape the correct corporate framework for their cross-border investments. Hence, Horizons works locally to deliver global solutions.
