vanbain Transfer Pricing is a sustainable business which now employs 7 full time professionals in two countries. Over the past 5 years we have been internationally ranked on the ITR World TP Rankings, have been nominated and shortlisted for both the African Transfer Pricing Firm of the Year and the South African Transfer Pricing Firm of the Year as part of the EMEA Tax Awards, and most importantly have been able to provide independent strategic advice to our clients through a passionate approach to our client relationships and an active and sincere interest in their businesses.
This success has brought opportunity. Towards the end of 2023 we launched vanbain Placements which assists clients in sourcing talent in a professional and differentiated way. We have continued with our initial promise of intentionally accepting only recruitment opportunities that we strongly feel that we can add value through leveraging our networks and utilising our deep knowledge of our clients’ businesses to place the best fit candidate.
Over the past two years we have explored additional service offerings based on client feedback, client needs, and obvious synergies with the two current businesses. Therefore, it is with great excitement that we announce the launch of vanbain Legal. Every business has different legal needs. Some require an embedded, strategic legal partner, others need sharp, high-impact advice on specific projects. We offer both, giving clients the confidence of internal counsel and the agility of external specialists, delivered in the way that suits your business best.
Finally, we’d like to introduce you to Matthew de Wet who will be Head of Legal Services at vanbain Legal, supported by Craig and myself from a client relationship and strategic perspective. Matthew has over 15 years of general commercial law experience gained from both legal advisor and in-house roles. Matthew has a genuine passion for business and law and is a pragmatic results-driven individual.
We look forward to engaging further. Please feel free to reach out for any immediate information or to set up a meeting. Please also visit our updated website at www.vanbain.com for additional information.
