John Apuzzo, CPA
International Tax Partner
I lead the firm's International Tax Practice, offering guidance to both public and private companies, as well as high-net-worth individuals engaging in global business activities. Driven by a passion for devising optimal tax strategies, I enable my clients to reinvest in their enterprises and enjoy the wealth they've diligently accumulated.
Schedule a ConsultationWhen collaborating with my clients, I leverage deep technical tax knowledge built during 25 years of public accounting experience. My key strengths are helping clients gain a perspective of the global picture — and focus on the vital details — to deliver lasting results. Through corporate tax planning, international tax restructuring, and business valuations, I help my clients navigate complex foreign tax jurisdictions.
I also help individuals and family offices close the gap between themselves and their cross-border activities. Through income tax and estate transfer tax minimization solutions, I strive to deliver financial strength and stability.
Before joining MGO, I worked at CPA firms in several countries, gaining experience in cross-border taxation strategies, entering foreign jurisdictions, corporate and family office restructuring, supply chain management, treaty analysis, and more.
The international tax environment is complex and ever evolving. I work hard to stay up to date on the latest risks, and opportunities, so I can deliver global tax strategies that address the spectrum of needs shaping your personal and professional financial needs.
