Remaining rooted in the domestic location and simultaneously be globally positioned with a great deal of innovation, many companies in Germany and Austria unite. Myself I also live an entrepreneurial spirit paired with a sense of homeland a global mindset, together with my wife and our four children.

My professional focus is on tax advisory services for inbound investments of Austrian groups of companies, especially in relation to their German subsidiaries and permanent establishments. Basis for high quality services and long-term client relationships is a high professional skillset in our teams and a close cooperation with KPMG colleagues in Austria. Additionally, good communication with Austrian and German management of the Austrian Headquarter as well as the German subsidiary is key to doing business with Austrian clients.

My aim is to optimize your international tax strategy in the long term and to protect you from risks. I make sure that the necessary specialists and the right partners coordinate. All of these qualities ensure excellent quality and the appropriate approach in all KPMG services for you.
