Outsource your R&D tax relief services and “offload the risk”

ABGI UK conducted a survey of the accountancy market in 2022 with a view to assessing firms’ attitudes towards outsourcing their R&D Tax Relief services.

The results showed an almost even split between respondents to who outsource and those who provide an in-house service.

For instance, among the respondents who offer an in-house R&D tax credit service, over 14 percent cited the ‘need to be a single point of contact for clients as the reason.

“That is a really important benefit for clients. They don’t want to be dealing with four different people – that’s just bad customer service,” says McGrath.
