Advisory & CFO Support for Hove: the basics
Not every growing business in Hove can justify a full-time finance director, but most reach a point where they need one some of the time. Our advisory service gives you forecasting, tax planning, funding support and a sounding board for big decisions, on a retainer sized to your business.
Businesses in England follow UK-wide rules for Income Tax, National Insurance, VAT and Corporation Tax, with Stamp Duty Land Tax applying to property purchases. Local business rates are set and collected by the local authority.
Why Hove businesses use IGI for advisory & cfo support
Fixed monthly fees agreed in advance
No hourly billing and no surprise invoices. Your plan covers the work agreed, and anything extra is quoted before we start.
A named accountant, not a call centre
You deal with the same person throughout the year. They learn how your Hove business works and answer the phone when you have a question.
Deadline reminders, not deadline panic
We track your Self Assessment, VAT, Corporation Tax and Companies House dates and chase what we need well ahead of time.
