Businesses look outside of UK for future growth

The UK economy shrank 0.5% in the last quarter of 2010 and many UK companies have realised that the only way to grow in the current climate is to focus on other emerging markets in the rest of the world, including London based premium drinks maker Diageo, who recently bought Turkey’s leading spirits company Mey Icki for £1.3bn in a bid to boost their sales worldwide.

RM Company Services Limited is helping other businesses that are looking to grow and take advantage of emerging markets outside of Europe with their range of international company services.

When moving into new markets in unfamiliar countries it is essential to consider the best company structure for the business, as the same one used in the UK may not be the most trading or tax efficient for the new country.

Chairman of RM Company Services Limited, Manny Cohen says: “We have been registering companies for nearly 40 years and understand the importance of finding the most efficient company structure for the country that the business is trading in. We are able to advise on this and assist businesses with international bank accounts, legal opinions, nominee services, registered agent and ship registration.”

Companies who do move into new emerging markets will also find that they need to deal with unfamiliar suppliers in that country in order to maximise profit and efficiency. This means placing trust in new companies in a foreign territory, making it essential that sufficient checks are made before entering into a business agreement with them. In addition to providing international company registrations, RM also owns the Anti-Money Laundering database, aRMadillo,  that provides credit reports on over 170 million countries in 220 countries worldwide so that businesses can be assured that wherever they trade in the world they can check new suppliers out before entering into an agreement with them.

Three levels of company reports are instantly available online, allowing business owners the opportunity to find out about the ownership and management of the prospective supplier or client, legal status and history plus a host of financial data including credit ratings and even an opinion based on the payment of trade suppliers and banks.

This gives companies a rounded overall view of their target market with all the information and legal assistance that they need to grow their business in that new market.

RM Company Services – Helping new businesses in 2011

RM Company Services Limited is urging entrepreneurs to be brave and take advantage of the fragile UK economy by starting a new business and registering a new company.
During a recession, many entrepreneurs are wary of starting a new business in case it fails. But they shouldn’t be. The right ideas can flourish during tough times. An example of this is Haagen-Dazs ice cream who saw their sales soar during the recession in the 1990’s when consumers saw them as an essential affordable luxury.

Chairman of RM, Manny Cohen says: “There is no right or wrong time to start a business but in tough economic times it is even better. If a company launches in difficult market conditions then the chances of success and real growth when the economy eases are phenomenal. Most people start businesses in an easy trading climate, then they get up against a tough market and haven’t a clue how to start. They then go seriously wrong and get into difficulties. RM has been incorporating companies for nearly 40 years and is able to make the process of setting up a company as quick, simple and painless as possible for the new business owners, whatever the economic climate. ”

Many entrepreneurs starting new businesses will have recently been made redundant and are going it alone for the first time. RM Company Services is able to help them along every stage of the way, beginning with registering their company. To do this, they will need to first check that their dream company name is available. This can be done for free on RM’s market leading web based system, e-Incorp. Once a name has been chosen, they should register it straight away before it is taken by someone else. A registration can be completed within minutes on the extremely user friendly, e-incorp. A range of packages are available depending on the needs of the entrepreneur and also documents can be presented in a specially designed case to ensure that they are kept safe. After a company has been registered, there are other things that entrepreneurs will need to consider including setting up a company bank account, VAT registrations, protecting their brand, filing annual statutory documents at Companies House & UK HMRC, all of which RM Company Services can assist with.
Setting up a new company is challenging but the potential rewards are often worth the risk and 2011 could be the year for great ideas to prosper.
