About Jan van Tilburg
Jan van Tilburg is a Dutch international tax law practitioner with more than 25 years of experience in advising corporate clients. Since 2004, Jan is founding partner of Fisconti Tax Consulting, a specialised tax practice, offering a comprehensive range of tax services to companies. The firm hereby benefits from Jan’s experience as international tax partner with one of the Big Four firms. Currently Jan van Tilburg serves as tax counsel to Dutch as well as foreign-based companies including some of the world’s leading businesses from a variety of industries.
Jan’s personal ambition is to fully understand the client’s business and to be considered as a logical and vital extension of the client’s organisation. When it comes to tax matters he aspires to be a true partner with his clients. Although not scared by complex international tax issues, Jan is passionate about creating ‘as- simple-as-possible’ solutions that the client is able to understand and maintain for years to come. This approach also forms the basis for Fisconti’s practice where the tax consultants find it crucial to be pro-active and create solutions that perfectly fit the client’s unique situation.
Although all top-level tax consultants may seem similar at first glance, it can be very different to work with them. In our relationship with clients we want our clients to enjoy working
❝
with Fisconti in the same way as we enjoy working with them.
As a specialist tax firm which isn't part of an audit organisation, Fisconti is not hindered by the increasingly stringent rules regarding auditors' independence. We can genuinely look after your company’s interest without the hesitation, restrictions and impractical pre- approval procedures that go with being part of an audit firm nowadays. Fisconti can give immediate assistance and thus become a true partner for its clients.
Free of any pressure to meet pre-set revenue targets, we can also give an opinion on the advisability of engaging other specialists. This enables us always to offer solutions that are tailored to the client’s needs and wishes.
Fisconti firmly believes that a company’s tax strategy should support its business operations and not the other way round. Our primary goal is to eliminate or reduce tax obstacles. We hereby aim to simplify the tax environment of businesses as much as possible without oversimplifying tax issues and without missing tax opportunities.
We do not try to sell standard ‘solutions’ to the market. In many cases these are nothing more than trying to fit a square peg into a round hole. This does not mean, however, that we reject
standard procedures or working in a structured manner. Nor do we feel in any way reluctant to put forward interesting ideas which we think perfectly fit the organisation or business. Here again a strong relationship and good communication can create such opportunities because they ensure that we have an optimum understanding of the company’s needs.
Another benefit of Fisconti’s independent status is that we can provide hands-on assistance in implementing solutions, and help you turn ideas into reality.
Jan van Tilburg founded Fisconti on basis of the conviction that clients deserve undiluted experience and quality. The size and structure of the firm – with six people on board – enables us to realise this goal by offering particularly personal service with close partner involvement wherever appropriate. Fisconti’s partners have extensive expertise in corporate taxation, much of it gained in ‘Big Four’ firms.
As founding member of the Corporate Tax Alliance (
www.corptax.org), a network of 40 specialised tax consultants around the world, Fisconti has a truly international outlook helping clients in many cross- border issues. The CTA-membership means that Fisconti combines the benefits of a high quality international network with the vast advantages of a small and dedicated firm.
