For organizations seeking to attract cross-border foreign direct investment, PacTac Advisors provides advice on structuring incentives, either as broad policies to attract specific types of investment, or for specific investment projects.
When a government is structuring its incentives programs, be they structured program incentives or vaguer discretionary incentives, PacTac Advisors provides expert assistance in analyzing global best-practice incentives as they fit in the client government's situation. For example, a location seeking to attract export manufacturing would not want to offer incentives to all manufacturers, since those coming for the domestic market would also receive the same incentives for investments that are likely to come without the incentives. PacTac works with clients to tailor the incentives to the industries being sought.
When seeking a specific project, a government can reduce the costs of its incentives by retaining PacTac Advisors to help customize the incentives package for that project. PacTac Advisors utilizes its network of contacts and experience in analyzing incentives to help the government develop a package of incentives which will be highly valued by the prospective investor, while seeking to minimize the costs to the government. Too often, governments put a dollar of incentives on the table that the investing company values at thirty cents. PacTac Advisors can help narrow that difference, to better match what the government can give with what the company really needs.
