Who's behind International Broker
"I went through this the hard way — so you don't have to."
Callum Rhodes, our founder, operates multiple seven-figure businesses across multiple jurisdictions. In his words: "Earlier in my career I structured more than $1 billion of loans for business owners — work that forces you to understand, practically, how corporate structures, tax systems, banks and regulators actually behave, and where their constraints collide."
"Then I internationalised my own life and business and found the real gap: every specialist sees their own corner, and nobody keeps them aligned around what you're actually trying to build. So I built the team that sits in the middle."

Everything lawful and fully disclosed — qualified professionals give the jurisdiction-specific advice
A life designed on purpose, not accepted by default.
This was never really about tax. It's about building a business and a life where you choose the jurisdiction, the structure and the pace — with everything above board.
Live where you choose
Residency that fits the life you actually want — climate, time zone, community, schools — instead of the country you happened to be born in.
Structure with confidence
A coherent, lawful, fully disclosed structure that your accountant and lawyer can each stand behind — instead of a patchwork of half-answers.
Keep more of what you build
Depending on your residency, structure and timing, your effective tax rate may fall substantially — lawfully. The result differs for every founder, which is exactly why it has to be planned, not copied.
Sound familiar?
Every month in research mode carries a real cost — and quietly narrows your options.
You've already decided your future probably isn't only in your home country.
You know tax is part of the equation, but nobody has given you a clear picture of what it means for your situation.
You suspect you're paying more than you need to by leaving the default settings in place.
Your business is growing — and with it, your future exit tax exposure.
You've already moved overseas, but you're not confident things are structured — or disclosed — correctly.
You keep meaning to deal with it properly, but it never feels urgent — until it's expensive.
"The cost of waiting is often greater than people realise. Depending on your home country, that may mean growing capital gains tax exposure. For everyone, it means decisions made by default instead of by design."
— Callum Rhodes, founder
How we work
We're not your accountant or your lawyer — and that's a good thing.
You know the drill: each professional handles their slice, sends another email with another caveat, and nobody owns the whole outcome. We sit above the individual workstreams. Qualified specialists still give the regulated, jurisdiction-specific advice — we keep them aligned, make the complete plan understandable, and drive it forward.
STEP 01
Your objectives
We start with the life and commercial outcome you actually want — where you live, how you operate, what you're building toward. That's what every other party gets aligned to.
STEP 02
Your fact pattern
We map your businesses, structures, residency, assets and obligations into one clear picture — so every specialist works from the same facts, not their own fragment.
STEP 03
The parties
Accountants, tax advisers, lawyers, company-service providers, banks and compliance teams each advise on their piece. Each has its own rules, timelines and blind spots — we keep their answers consistent.
STEP 04
Coordinated implementation
We own the dependencies, the information flow and the execution sequence, so things happen in the right order — and you don't project-manage five disconnected advisers yourself.
Concierge coordination
One team to coordinate the whole move.
Moving your life and business across borders touches a dozen providers in three or four countries. We assist with each piece, bring in the right qualified providers, and run the whole sequence — so you never become the project manager.
Visa & residency
Establishing the right visa and residency in your new country — matched to how you actually plan to live.
Local licences & insurance
The licences, registrations and insurance you need to live and operate there — arranged, not discovered later.
Overseas incorporation
Companies established across the jurisdictions that fit your business and personal needs — in the right order.
Banking access
Personal and business banking that actually opens — because the structure was built with the banks in mind.
Departure & exit tax
Your own qualified accountants calculate and implement the home-country departure work. We keep them moving: complete facts, clear timeline, chased dependencies — finished before you fly, not after.
Sequencing & implementation
Legal and tax structuring advice from qualified specialists, plus the document flow, deadlines and hand-offs across every party — owned end to end.
We don't calculate or advise on exit tax, and we don't replace regulated advice. We make sure the right qualified people do the right work, in the right order — and that you understand the whole plan.
Real client situations
Founders who wanted a better life somewhere else — without the mess.
Earning well in Australia, dreaming about Asia
Where they were
A founder doing well at home, watching a large share of every good year go to tax, and increasingly drawn to a life in Bali or elsewhere in Asia.
What they actually wanted
A better lifestyle at a lower cost of living, with their tax legally reflecting where they actually live and work — done properly, nothing dodgy.
What was keeping them stuck
No idea where to start. Every forum thread and adviser said something different, and the fear of getting it wrong kept the move permanently next-year territory.
How International Broker helped
We turned the where-do-I-even-start feeling into a clear plan: where to live, how to set things up, what to do in what order — and we ran the moving pieces so they didn't have to.
Remote business, young family, ready to leave Australia
Where they were
Running a service business that works from anywhere, with a partner and kids — wanting more life for the money, not a status-symbol relocation.
What they actually wanted
To move the family overseas without destabilising the business, the household finances or the kids' routine — and without a nasty tax surprise later.
What was keeping them stuck
Too many moving parts: the business, the family, the money, the move. Nobody they spoke to would take responsibility for the whole picture, only their own slice.
How International Broker helped
We built one plan covering the business, the family and the move, brought in the right professionals where needed, and handled the coordination so they could focus on the family and keep running the business.
Already overseas, running on internet advice
Where they were
Already living abroad, business growing, with a setup stitched together from YouTube videos, forum posts and a couple of one-off consultations.
What they actually wanted
To stop quietly worrying. One clear, defensible plan they could stand behind — before the business got bigger and any problem got bigger with it.
What was keeping them stuck
They didn't know what was actually fine and what wasn't, and didn't want to repeat their whole story to five different advisers just to find out.
How International Broker helped
We reviewed the whole setup once, told them plainly what to keep and what to fix, and managed the fixes end to end — so they told their story once and got one answer.
Valuable business, wanting to keep every option open
Where they were
A founder with a genuinely valuable business, thinking about living overseas one day and maybe selling one day — neither on a fixed date.
What they actually wanted
The freedom to choose where they live and when they sell, without discovering too late that decisions made years earlier had boxed them in.
What was keeping them stuck
They knew today's setup quietly shapes tomorrow's options, but had no way to see around corners — and no time to become an expert themselves.
How International Broker helped
We planned while the options were still open: a structure that fits how they want to live now and doesn't close the doors they may want to walk through later — with the specialist work arranged and managed for them.
The cost of waiting
Small decisions become expensive decisions as the business grows.
An illustrative example only — not advice, and not a projection. Australian-owned company, $0 cost base, shares held more than 12 months, top marginal rate with the 50% CGT discount.
Plus three more years of profits taxed at full Australian rates—
Additional CGT alone vs. planning now~$235,000 more
These figures are illustrative, based on simplified Australian tax settings. Whether restructuring or a residency change reduces your tax — and by how much — depends entirely on your facts: residency, timing, structure and disclosure obligations. Some founders see substantial reductions; others shouldn't move at all. That's precisely what proper planning, with qualified advisers, works out before you commit. The one thing that's reliably true: the gap grows with the business.
