The compliance team exists to protect our clients and colleagues by making sure what we produce as a firm is fair, correct, and well-evidenced. At RCK we take responsibility for the review process, as well as acting as a hub for tax-technical expertise and dealing with any correspondence with the tax authorities.
Our compliance and review team has been made totally independent of our delivery team, as opposed to a more common peer review process.
The team scrutinise each claim with the tax inspector mindset before it goes out – so we have all the answers to the questions HMRC might ask. Not only does this reduce the risk of enquiry, but it makes dealing with those that do arise much more efficient. We look to uplift claims where possible however in the event that you are overclaiming to manage risk we will reduce the amount if necessary.
Day-to-day, we get together as a team and divide the newly-drafted claims between us according to expertise and availability.
