ESTABLISHING A BUSINESS ENTITY IN ENGLAND

Foreword Despite a challenging macro-economic backdrop, the United Kingdom continues to thrive as one of the world’s leading global financial centres. As a location for business and investment, the UK provides a number of compelling advantages, including a competitive environment and access to a highly skilled workforce, underscored by a stable legal and regulatory landscape. The UK provides firms with the ability to do business east and west within the same working day and as a result, is an important market for corporates and SMEs to expand into Europe, the US and Asia. Comprising the world’s most internationally connected financial markets, international thought leaders, a diverse workforce and a globally understood rule of law, the UK remains a leading location for entrepreneurial individuals and businesses with an international outlook. Investing in a foreign nation requires awareness of the pitfalls, and prospective investors will need an in-depth understanding of the process itself. This guide offers an overview of legal aspects of conducting business in the UK. It is meant as an introduction to the UK marketplace and does not offer specific legal advice.
