Acute Advisory helps Australian businesses build the right structure for cross-border growth, from a first entity in Hong Kong to the governance that keeps it working.
Ten years of relationships and precedent in the market you're moving into.
Structure shaped around local company law, tax residency and ATO exposure.
One advisor from first call to sign-off. No handoffs, no committee.
Ten years working directly with businesses moving between Australia and Hong Kong.
One advisor, not a rotating team, so context never gets lost between meetings.
Plain, upfront advice on fees and next steps, with nothing buried in the fine print.
The best structural advice arrives before the decision is made, not after the entity already exists.
At a time when conditions at home feel tight, the opportunity next door has never looked larger. Hong Kong and the wider Asia-Pacific offer scale most Australian businesses have never had direct access to. That access only pays off if the entity, tax position and governance are right before you arrive, not patched together after.
Focused advice for the moments when a company's next market is still being decided.
Graeme Harris has spent over ten years working directly with businesses in Hong Kong. That means the hard questions get answered from experience, not from a standing start. Every engagement also gets his direct attention, not a graduate team.
Good advice has a rhythm: listen, frame, test, decide.
We start with the business as it actually is, not a generic client profile.
We separate what's urgent from what's structural, then show the trade-offs.
We pressure-test the preferred entity and tax position against reality.
You leave with a clear plan, a clear cost, and clear ownership of the next step.
