About us

Trusted by financial institutions worldwide to deliver real-world compliance.

Respected tax industry leaders

Our specialist services

TConsult was founded in 2003 by Ross McGill to provide financial institutions with practical solutions for their cross-border tax and anti-tax evasion obligations. From the beginning, our approach has been hands-on and collaborative. We help our clients translate complex regulations into operational reality.

Our clients are typically custodian banks, brokerages, and other financial intermediaries that are either involved in the payment chain for U.S. securities or have reporting obligations under FATCA or CRS. We also partner with technology firms and regtech innovators to support the development of products that simplify compliance and reporting processes.

We are a member of the European Commission Large Working Group for the FASTER Directive contributing our expertise and knowledge on a wide range of technical and operational issues for future Certified Financial Intermediaries (CFIs).

By combining regulatory insight with operational experience, we help clients build efficient and compliant business models in an increasingly complex global environment.

Global reach through local expertise

In 2019, we launched our affiliate programme, bringing together a network of independent consultants across the world.

Our affiliates contribute a range of subject matter expertise, regional experience, and language support, allowing us to act local while delivering global.

This international collaboration enables us to support clients in multiple jurisdictions not just with consistent quality but also cultural understanding.

Our commitment to security

We take information security seriously.

TConsult is ISO 27001 certified, reflecting our commitment to maintaining the highest standards in data protection, confidentiality, and risk management.

Our contribution to industry best practice

We are founder members of the Association of Qualified and Authorised Intermediaries (AQAI), an organisation dedicated to promoting best practices and knowledge sharing across the global intermediary community.

Our experts have written multiple reference books and sit on ISO committees to help develop the standards that will make compliance easier for financial institutions in the future.

Our carbon footprint

We believe every business has a responsibility to recognise that climate change poses a threat to the economy, nature, and society at large. At TConsult, we are committed to doing our part to reduce emissions and promote environmental sustainability.

  • We have made the SME Climate Commitment as part of the UN Race to Zero campaign.
  • We calculate our carbon footprint annually and identify opportunities to reduce our impact.
  • We invest in climate projects that benefit the planet, biodiversity, and local communities.

Our role in the community

Although our team members all work entirely remotely, we recognise that they are all deeply connected to the communities where they live.

We are committed to donating at least 10% of our net profits to charity each financial year, with a focus on organisations that support the environment and local community initiatives.

Each year, our team members nominate charities that are making a difference in their area, and we proudly support them through our giving programme.

Our ownership

Today, TConsult is majority owned by an Employee Ownership Trust (EOT).

This structure reflects our long-term commitment to independence and shared success. It empowers our team to shape the future of the business.

Looking ahead

From our beginnings as a specialist consultancy in withholding tax compliance to our current role as a trusted advisor on global frameworks such as QI, FATCA, CRS, and the EU FASTER Directive, our mission remains the same: to deliver practical solutions that help financial institutions operate with confidence and integrity.
