“Outsourcing enables you to concentrate more on your staff rather than on paperwork”

Why outsource?

There are many reasons why businesses choose to

use outsourcing services:

• Lower costs created through economies of scale

• Budgetary control

• Convenience

• Higher quality of service (tried and trusted)

• Greater business fl exibility

• Management able to concentrate on core

business

• Reduction of risks

• More control over deadlines/delivery dates

• Fast set-up of service

• Control and effi ciency

• Just ‘a call away’ expertise and up-to-date

knowledge

• Less dependency on internal resource & staff

• Reduction of time spent on administration

• Support that increases or decreases to meet the

demands of your business

The concept of outsourcing

Outsourcing has become increasingly

popular among both large and small

businesses. At one time outsourcing

was the preserve of the biggest

companies but in recent times SMEs

have realised that outsourcing some

or all of their business functions can

allow them to manage their time,

budgets and just generally ‘ease the

strain’ of day-to-day business in order

to concentrate on business growth

and development. Some businesses

may not have the internal resources

to meet the demands of statutory

requirements (eg. legal, tax, HR, health

& safety, payroll, bookkeeping and

expenses) and look to an outsourcing

solution. Outsourcing is known to

be an excellent cost-cutting measure

but in today’s business world it is also

seen as a strategic planning tool.

Lots of choice, so why Throgmorton?

Throgmorton offers a full range of corporate management services

(fi nancial management, tax, fi nancial regulation, human resources,

immigration, payroll, health & safety and company secretarial

services). Clients include multi-nationals, listed companies and

SMEs. We have an excellent reputation and very good working

relationships with all of our clients. We are committed to meeting

your needs as quickly and effi ciently as possible.

Whether you are an established business looking to outsource

business processes or a start-up business looking for

comprehensive advice and assistance, we can help.

We will be happy to discuss your particular requirements and tailor

a package to suit you.

What our clients say:

“Throgmorton have been with us since

2005, when we decided to be in the UK,

and have been instrumental in ensuring

we have done everything “right fi rst

time”. They are highly knowledgeable and

professional, and above all, they are very

practical in their approach. In other words,

they don’t only know what needs to be

done, but they know the best practices for

our sector”.

Goldentree Asset Management

“As we started the process of establishing

a UK entity, we understood the need for

a competent local partner to help guide

us through the various accounting and

personnel issues. The folks at Throgmorton

took the time to understand our business

and structure. They have been genuine

in their interest in insuring our books

and records were set up correctly. Their

experience and professionalism was quickly

evident and we value the relationship”.

Prisma Capital Partners

There are several aspects of your

approach where were specially

appreciated.

The fi rst is professionalism, where you

set very high standards in everything you

undertook and never, in my experience,

fell short.

The second is your fl exibility to extend

your assistance far wider than just

the core services for which you were

contracted. This has meant that we could

be sure that, whatever the nature of the

enquiry, a single call to you would produce

an informed and reliable result.

The third is your enthusiasm and availability.

I always felt that HostLogic was your most

important client and that you cheerfully

made yourself available to us.
