Expat advice group Chase Buchanan has opened an office in Bordeaux, France.
The office will be headed by senior advisers Jean Pierre Çarçabal and Malcolm McDowell.
Çarçabal was previously a partner at Blevins Franks in France, while McDowell is a pensions and lifetime allowance specialist having worked in the US, Middle East and Europe.
This hub is expected to widen Chase Buchanan’s reach and to help give more UK nationals to access advice when moving to a country with a different tax regime.
McDowell said: “Chase Buchanan’s emphasis on personal relationships, truly tailored advice and fostering long-term dialogues to support and assist clients through each stage of life overseas is cohesive with my personal approach to wealth management and financial advice, streamlining the complexity of tax planning and portfolio management.”
Çarçabal added: “I am delighted to be joining Chase Buchanan and to be part of this new team in Bordeaux, combining skill, insight and in-depth understanding of the tax regimes, investment landscapes and financial sectors in France and varied locations across Europe.”
