Warren Hardie

An accountant in Christchurch since the late 1990s, I’ve specialised in advising New Zealand businesses about their taxation and financial affairs. My focus is on building trusting relationships, so you have absolute confidence that my advice is based on providing ethical guidance in your best interests.

I help you make informed decisions about your business, enabling you to minimise your tax obligations while still doing the right thing.

With an emphasis on transparency and communication, I work to ensure you can run your business with as little stress as possible. People engaging with accountants can find themselves faced with fees they don’t understand and didn’t expect. My policy is to ensure you don’t face any such surprises when you work with us.

Whether you operate a business in New Zealand or have foreign or international investments and business interests, I can help you.

As an accountant, I use my extensive experience to help a wide range of businesses, including:

• companies
• trusts
• registered charities
• partnerships and
• individuals

with

• business structuring
• tax planning and strategy
• financial accounting and analysis
• business acquisitions and sales
• cost-effective accounting and
• compliance systems.

My clients know me as honest, friendly and reliable. That reputation, combined with expertise gained from many years experience, has led to many of our clients coming to us through referrals.

If you’re looking for someone with a higher level of expertise to help you with your taxation and financial affairs, contact me. My goal is to help your business not only survive but thrive in New Zealand.
