background

Melanie Chen leads the China Group at UHY Advisors, and directs a variety of services, specifically cross-border tax planning and business consulting services for companies doing business between the United States and mainland China, Hong Kong, and Taiwan (Greater China Region).

Melanie assists China-based U.S. publicly traded companies with U.S. GAAP financial reporting, such as preparation of financial statements, S-1/F-1, quarterly 10-Q, and annual 10-K forms. She guides Chinese companies in acquisitions and investments in the U.S., such as financial and tax due diligence, designing tax-efficient investment structures, and identifying investment opportunities. Additionally, she advises US-based multinational companies on complex tax, financial, and operational issues related to doing business in the Greater China Region, and U.S. companies on identifying suppliers, manufacturers, licensees, and investors in China. She also advises high-net-worth Chinese individuals on U.S. tax planning and compliance.

Melanie is a member of the Management Committee of UHY Advisors NY, and a former member of the Board of Directors of UHY International, the global organization of UHY member firms. She was a speaker at “2018 US IPO Market Outlook” and “China’s Economy and Financial System Conference,” both in 2017.

I guide my clients through the process of expanding and thriving in a globalized economy.
