Hands-on approach & pragmatism

I approach tasks with a clear hands-on approach and develop pragmatic solutions. For me, the focus is on acting cost-efficiently and always maintaining a vision in order to make future-oriented decisions.

Listening and understanding form the basis for me to really grasp the intentions and needs of my counterpart. In my work, I attach great importance to honesty and transparency, because I am convinced that every change also has consequences. That is why it is important to me to always think ahead and plan carefully.

Personal exchange & comprehensibility

Personal interaction with people is important to me. I approach others openly, do not act rashly and ensure that you as a client are always taken on board.

It is important to me to translate complex technical language into simple, understandable language. I explain issues in such a way that the advantages and disadvantages are clear and ensure that my clients can make well-founded decisions.

Goal-oriented action

My aim is to work together to find the best solutions that make sense in the short term and are sustainable in the long term.

With my expertise in the areas of inheritance tax, gifts and corporate structuring, I can help you master tax challenges and secure your entrepreneurial goals across generations.

Tax foresight creates the basis for your family business to grow across generations.

Succession planning is crucial for the long-term success of a family business.

Specialist Consultant for Corporate Succession (DStV e.V.)

With my specialization in the areas of company valuation and financial due diligence, I can assist you with a wide range of complex issues. I attach great importance to precision, transparency and individual advice that always focuses on your specific requirements and objectives.

My aim is to provide you with reliable and creative solutions to the often complex issues of company valuation and to offer you clear added value.

In the area of company valuation, my field of activity includes litigation and dispute valuations as well as fairness opinions, which provide well-founded assessments of the appropriateness of transactions.

I also provide valuations in a tax context, for example in accordance with the Inheritance Tax and Gift Tax Act, the Foreign Tax Act and the Reorganization Tax Act. I also carry out valuations in an accounting context, such as purchase price allocations and impairment tests, which are crucial for correct accounting.

As part of finance due diligence, I support companies in carefully examining the financial risks and potential of transactions.

My aim is to develop tailor-made, legally compliant and economically viable solutions for you that offer added value in both challenging and everyday situations.

Your Partner with Vision and Drive

As a partner at the PKF Wulf Group in Stuttgart, I stand for solution-oriented and practical tax consulting as well as efficient auditing services. My goal is to make complex issues understandable and to develop strategies together that are both legally sound and economically viable.

Beyond goals: With passion and integrity, I shape tomorrow’s solutions today!

In addition to my professional expertise, I bring determination and reliability – traits that stem from my enthusiasm for sports. Power, discipline, and team spirit define my approach – qualities that make a difference both in sports and in consulting. This mindset is also reflected in my professional focus areas:

VAT is one of the most dynamic and sensitive areas of tax law. I help companies confidently navigate national and international requirements, optimize processes, and avoid risks – whether in chain transactions, digital business models, or cross-border services and deliveries.

International permanent establishments require well-thought-out structures. I support companies with analysis, planning, and implementation – from structuring and applying the arm’s length principle to ongoing tax compliance. The goal is to avoid double taxation and create economically sustainable solutions.

In the construction and architecture industry, complexity often lies in revenue recognition. I assist architects and civil engineers in accurately reflecting projects in commercial and tax accounting, with a keen eye for industry-specific aspects, fee models, and the clear classification of services.

Why Martin Krebs and the PKF Wulf Group?
I stand for consulting that is clear, dependable, and solution-oriented. As a tax consultant and auditor, I bring not only expert tax knowledge but also a deep understanding of economic contexts and audit-related requirements.
The PKF Wulf Group offers the ideal environment: an interdisciplinary team with strong regional roots and international experience. This allows me to apply my expertise effectively and provide you with support that truly drives you forward.

International Auditing with Insight, Responsibility, and a Focus on What Truly Matters

As a tax advisor and auditor within the PKF Wulf Group, I advise and audit international corporate groups with complex group structures. My auditing experience is based on over ten years of working in international auditing – including my role as an authorized signatory at a Big Four firm.

Reliable advice starts with trust. As an expert in international audits, I develop sustainable solutions together with my clients.

A key focus of my work lies in audit and international auditing. I support companies with cross-border structures and international subsidiaries, drawing on years of experience in global audit processes. I know what matters: efficient workflows, clear communication, and a deep understanding of complex business models.

Another area of focus is the audit of consolidated financial statements under the German Commercial Code (HGB). I place great importance on combining legal requirements with economic substance – to produce financial statements that are not only formally correct but also meaningful and transparent. Whether it’s an individual or group financial statement audit, I always emphasize efficiency and clarity.

In addition, I support international groups that prepare their financial statements according to IFRS. I assist with the transition to international accounting standards and audit ongoing cross-border financial statements – with a particular focus on complex accounting issues and their impact on the transparency and clarity of financial reports.

My work on the PKF Audit Identity Committee complements my practical experience with international technical exchange. Together with colleagues from the global PKF Global network, I contribute to the development of unified audit standards – ensuring that we deliver consistent, high-quality audit services to our clients worldwide.

Why Kevin Kuß and the PKF Wulf Group?
I combine international audit experience with the drive to find pragmatic solutions to complex challenges – reliable, structured, and with a deep understanding of your business model. At the PKF Wulf Group, I have found a team that shares this commitment: personally approachable, professionally strong, and internationally connected. Together, we deliver audit and advisory services at eye level – for both medium-sized enterprises and internationally active corporations.

My Commitment

What matters most to me is to support my clients closely and reliably. I believe that strong collaboration is built on open dialogue, clear communication, and a shared understanding of the individual situation. Only on this basis can solutions be developed that truly fit and prove sustainable over the long term.

One principle is particularly important to me: the most tax-efficient solution is not necessarily the right solution. Sound structuring means that a solution is technically robust, economically sensible, and feels right for the client. Only solutions that clients are comfortable with will be embraced in the long term and implemented successfully.

For this reason, I do not view tax matters in isolation, but always in a broader context. My aim is to develop solutions that align with your individual circumstances, your objectives, and your personality – and that provide guidance beyond the immediate issue at hand.

Focus of Practice

I advise clients across all industries and legal forms – from start-ups to established mid-sized companies, from self-employed professionals to associations and non-profit organizations.

I have a particular passion for restructurings as well as the strategic design of business and wealth succession. In this context, I see myself as a first point of contact for new initiatives and periods of change.

Why PKF Wulf Group

For me, the PKF Wulf Group provides the ideal environment for high-quality and responsible advisory services. I particularly value the close professional exchange within the group and the ability to draw on a broad range of expert knowledge.

Especially in complex matters, there is significant added value in obtaining second opinions, selectively involving specialists, and jointly working through issues. This approach results in solutions that are not only tailored to the individual client, but also underpinned by broad professional expertise.

Together with a dedicated team and extensive experience, we support our clients in a reliable, transparent, and partnership-oriented manner – with the ambition not only to deliver sound results, but also to ensure that the path towards those results is clear, comprehensible, and responsible.

My ambition is to fully understand your perspective and translate your objectives into shared strategies with long-term impact. This is how success is built – and trust that lasts.
