Doing business in Australia
Whether you’re opening a business for the first time or looking to expand, Australia is one of the most attractive business locations in the world with a relatively deregulated and open economy.
The investment opportunities and growth potential between Australia and Asia are significant.
For Australian businesses looking for growth it can mean exporting, outsourcing, re-locating operations, or finding new markets for their products and services. For Asian businesses, the stability of the Australian economy and opportunities from a broad range of Australian industries makes it a secure and attractive destination for investment.
Grant Thornton works with Asian businesses looking to invest in Australia, as well as advising Australian companies on their outbound investments into Asia.
By delivering a combination of technical excellence, with personalised advice that not only reflects a deep understanding of your business, your industry and ambitions but also an in-depth knowledge and connection with the jurisdiction in which you want to invest, we help set our clients up for success.
A localised solution on the ground
Our aligned global Grant Thornton network includes 85 regional offices throughout Asia. We are across all legislative and fiscal changes and upcoming trends in the countries in which our clients plan to operate or invest. We take a long-term view of your strategic goals and help develop the best path and structures for achieving your ambitions.
Our approach is unique and is focused on your success. We have experts who specifically understand the nature of doing business and investing in key markets such as China, Japan, Singapore and the ASEAN region, and India.
By engaging with our Grant Thornton team, you will have access to the expertise you need with a single point of contact. Our Asia experts provide you with a relationship leader who can bridge the gap, connecting you to the right people, teams and resources you need to make your international strategy a success. In addition, our Grant Thornton Australian leaders are closely aligned with the key regional financial centres of Hong Kong and Singapore, underpinned by financial investments and board and advisory support to our Grant Thornton firms in those locations.
