Goal Group has partnered with HTK Connect Pte to further integrate its withholding tax reclaims and securities class actions recovery services into the Japanese market.
HTK Connect is a specialist consultancy focused on supporting overseas firms in establishing and developing successful business relationships in Japan.
The team in Tokyo aims to help Goal Group extend the reach of its securities services across Japan.
Goal already supports the Japanese investment community indirectly through its work with the four alternative dispute resolution depositary banks in the US.
Commenting on the partnership, Stephen Everard, CEO at Goal Group, comments: “HTK Connect is led by respected and well-connected figures in the financial services sector and is the perfect partner to help further our presence in Asia’s largest securities market. We have a long and successful track record of expanding overseas and we never under estimate the value of local representatives, local knowledge and local language. HTK Connect will deliver all this and more.”
Torsten Kaehlert, co-founder and director at HTK Connect, says: “We are delighted to start working with Goal Group who have an enviable global reputation for excellence across its two core business areas. We look forward to developing fruitful, long-term relationships with key Japanese securities institutions and helping them leverage Goal’s technology to unlock the full potential of their clients’ reclaims and recoveries.”
