Abba Hillel 14, Ramat Gan
Attorney and CPA, former official with the Tax Authority – Transaction advisory, structural changes, and Israeli and international taxation.
Hai Amos – Attorney and CPA | Transaction Advisory on Tax Aspects
Hai Amos is an attorney and certified public accountant, a former assessor of the Large Enterprises Tax Assessment Office and the Professional Division of the Israel Tax Authority, with extensive experience in Israeli and international taxation and in advising on complex transactions from a tax perspective.
His work connects the legal, accounting, and business aspects, based on the understanding that a commercial decision is often also a tax decision. Changes in ownership structure, the identity of the parties, or the structure of the consideration can alter the entire tax picture; hence, it is crucial to examine the implications before finalizing the details.
Areas of Expertise
Transaction Advisory on Tax Aspects – Examining tax issues within the transaction, analyzing alternatives, and aligning the course of action with the commercial objective.
Structural Changes – Examining the tax implications of mergers, demergers, and transfers of assets and activities, as well as handling preliminary tax rulings with the Tax Authority in this regard.
Israeli and International Taxation – Issues involving activities in Israel and international aspects, including shareholders and parties to the transaction outside of Israel.
Sale of Activities or Shares, Entry of Investors, and Change in Ownership Structure.
Complex Consideration Structures – Deferred payment, contingent consideration, and performance-based mechanisms.
Ongoing Advisory for Companies and CFOs on tax issues surrounding transactions and business decisions.
The advisory is conducted in collaboration with the leading commercial attorney handling the transaction and the client's professional team, with an understanding of the business objective.
The work process is predefined:
Understanding the transaction and its progress stage, identifying what requires examination and its scope, assessing implications, exposures, and alternatives, and defining the continued advisory until implementation.
No need to come with a pre-assessment – you can start by describing the situation and together assess if further examination is required.
