Gene Kwee Partner, Head of Tax APAC

Gene Kwee

"Technical competency of the highest level is expected from a tax partner, but as important is the ability to understand the practical considerations and needs of the client. It requires the application of common sense and a commercial approach. As such, I strive to deliver practical tax advice tailored to the 'real world' of business and relish the opportunity to find the most effective outcome.”

He also co-founded a Tax Advisory legal business which he grew to an 18-man team in just four years.

Gene’s main areas of focus include cross-border tax planning, setting up private equity and venture capital structures, finance transactions, transfer pricing and tax advisory services. He is also well-versed in dealing with both corporate and private clients in respect their cross-border tax transactions.
