Questro International has announced today the opening of a new office in Germany and the recruitment of Thorsten Schaus as their new TP Leader in Germany. Thorsten will also assume a global mandate to grow the Financial Services transfer pricing offering within Questro.

Thorsten joins the firm after more than 10 years of Big 4 transfer pricing experience. Most recently he was a Tax Partner and EMEA FS TP Leader at KPMG, based in Germany. He was also a key member of the Global Steering Committee for FS TP.

During his Big 4 career, he worked as operative as well as lead engagement Partner for a number of international banks, insurance companies, asset managers and real estate investors. In addition, he has gained significant experience through direct involvement in M&A (Tax Due Diligence) as well as national and international tax planning assignments and treasury engagements for large corporates including inter-company cash pooling and financial guarantees.

Thorsten comments: “I am delighted to be joining one of the most innovative transfer pricing advisory firms in Europe today and building out a strong German and Financial Services practice. Over the past 3 years, Questro has build up a robust market reputation across its offices in Switzerland, the Netherlands, & Denmark, and I look forward to leveraging on that success in Germany.”
