Our Values
FAIRNESS
We believe in striving for a just and equitable world for all. At Arcos, this belief translates into setting our fees at a fair rate and not changing the goal posts for our clients so they have the certainty they deserve around our costs and deliverables. It also means, our focus is primarily to ensure that our clients do not suffer double taxation where they are risk from doing so, and making sure they are paying the right amount of tax in the right place.
Empathy
We believe that starting point of any meaningful relationship is being able to listen, put yourself in the shoes of your client and understand their hopes, priorities and concerns which is why at Arcos, we offer a complimentary introductory meeting so that we can really start to get to know our clients, and understand how best we can add value to their lives right from the early stages of the relationship. We also include an annual planning meeting for our clients where we prepare their US and/or UK tax returns in our quoted fees. Understanding and meeting your needs is at the heart of how we work with our clients.
