GCC Advisory

OUR PRACTICE

Our GCC Advisory Practice with its understanding of the global shared-services landscape and its “Business Outcome First” approach brings integrated legal solutions, to our clients across sectors, from strategizing the scope, scale, site, structuring to contracts, compliances, governance, taxation and policies. The team is adept in navigating through the almost impenetrable web of incompatible regulations, acts, and rules, thereby, protecting critical interests of GCCs and forming durable relationships with our clientele based on competency and reliability.

The practice delves deep into the niche areas and provides curated solutions to unprecedented complications faced while setting-up a GCC. We have considerable experience in representing and guiding corporations and institutions, while coming up with innovative resolutions to their unique difficulties.

GCCs have developed from providing back-office support to innovation centers, providing crucial aid, and becoming an indispensable part of their parent company. We understand that setting up of GCCs requires diverse services across various sectors. Therefore, we extend an array of services ranging from assistance with setting up GCCs, income tax services, legal risk advisory, data protection & cybersecurity to due diligence and compliances, among others.
