Mazars has appointed Mr. Jonathan Stuart-Smith, a qualified chartered accountant from London with over 20 years of experience across Asia, as the company’s new head of the tax services department. The move will strengthen the company’s commitment to helping multinational groups and corporate clients, including entrepreneurs in Thailand, to seize the best business opportunities, especially when expanding their businesses in the local and international markets through mergers and acquisitions.

Mr. Stuart-Smith has a wealth of experience working in Asia, including Thailand, Japan, Singapore, and Hong Kong, advising companies on cross-border trade and investment. His expertise will provide support to the business community in Thailand and internationally and help Mazars to provide a full range of high-quality and competitive tax services to clients in all industries and of all sizes. This will include helping clients apply the rapidly-changing international tax rules to their global businesses, as well as to determine, document and defend their transfer-pricing positions. He will also work with the financial advisory team on effective structuring and M&A transactions and to identify and manage tax exposures in the course of due diligence projects.
