Kreston Global today announces the appointment of Sharon Omer-Kaye (Partner, James Cowper Kreston) as Chair to the Global Private Client Services (GPCS) Group.

Sharon has amassed a deep and broad experience in the private client field both technically and at a leadership level. Having qualified as a Chartered Tax Adviser, alongside being a member of the global Society of Trust and Estate Practitioners, she currently leads the Private Client and Global Mobility team at James Cowper Kreston, and brings that experience to the new global group, leading other international private client specialists and wider tax teams to help elevate the network’s offering.

The Global Private Client Services Group, a sub-group of the Global Tax Group, provides expertise to international high-net-worth individuals (HNWIs) and their families on a range of matters from tax compliance and risk management strategies to offshore solutions including estate planning as well as more structured solutions including the use of trusts, personal investment companies, and family offices.

This offering also extends to global mobility services for mid and senior level employees across the entire spectrum including inbound and outbound tax advice, asset structuring, expatriate policies and social security advice working alongside other professionals supporting relocation and immigration. The team works together across borders to help expats move between countries.

Kreston Global has three main global service line groups run by members and supported by the central HQ team: Tax, Audit, and Advisory. These groups house a number of subgroups such as Corporate Finance, Indirect Tax, Transfer Pricing, R&D Tax Credits and Internal Audit and Risk.
