NM Group

NM Group is a Maltese accountancy and corporate services firm that describes its aim as being better than accountants: not only keeping the books in order but acting as a trusted adviser to growing businesses. It is based in Naxxar, in the middle of the island, and serves start-ups, established companies and family businesses.

The practice began as Noel Muscat & Co in 1991, when founders Noel and Silvana Muscat started it from scratch, and it has since grown into a one stop shop with specialised teams for finance, corporate, tax, legal and gaming work. It is listed among the accountants in Malta on VisitMalta.co.uk.

The firm's values are innovation, people and quality: a focus on technology, on the satisfaction of clients and staff, and on integrity in every engagement. A corporate social responsibility team also runs projects for the local community.

Accounting, tax and audit

The accounting side is built around technology. Services include cloud accounting, management accounts, VAT reporting, audit, payroll, personal tax, corporate and international tax and an outsourced chief financial officer for companies that want finance leadership without a full time hire. The firm also keeps clients on top of recurring deadlines such as VAT reports and the monthly FS5 return and payment.

Over three decades the firm has worked with clients from the government, medical, tourism and hospitality sectors among others. UK readers new to Maltese rules will find helpful background in our guide to Malta tax for UK nationals and our overview of the corporate tax structure.

The firm's website also carries a knowledge section with frequently asked questions on income tax, accounting for assets, place of supply, VAT, audit, company formation, EU and national funding, employment and micro invest, which gives a clear picture of the technical ground the team covers. Enquiries can also be made in Italian, as the firm's contact form is available in both English and Italian.

Corporate services and relocation

Corporate work is delivered through NMCS Limited, which is registered with the Malta Business Registry and authorised by the MFSA to offer company service provider services. It handles company incorporation from start to finish, directorships, registered office and company secretary services, and the licences and registrations a business needs by law.

Other corporate services include structural changes to existing companies, help opening a business bank account, anti money laundering and know your customer due diligence, and expertise in registering Malta Gaming Authority licences. For people relocating, the team assists at every stage of applying for Maltese residency and citizenship and helps set up a business in Malta. Our guide to relocating to Malta from the UK is a good companion read, and the wider sector is covered in our financial services in Malta overview.

Advisory, funding and serviced offices

The advisory team works with start-ups, established businesses and family firms on national and EU funding, launching start-ups, business strategy and performance, succession planning, technology consultancy, financial planning and data driven consultancy.

NM Group also lets modern serviced offices at its Naxxar location. They fill a 370 square metre floor and range in size from rooms for one person to rooms for eight, all furnished, with a managed reception, fast wifi, utilities, cleaning, maintenance, tea and coffee included. Tenants share a kitchenette, terrace and break out area, plus meeting booths, meeting rooms and an executive boardroom, with printing, on site parking and round the clock CCTV and access control.
