## Description

Expanding your team across borders involves more than just a base salary. You have to account for local tax brackets, mandatory benefits, and the structural costs of how you actually employ people. This MCP gives your AI client the data it needs to build accurate financial models for international expansion. 

Instead of guessing, you can ask your agent to run a side-by-side comparison between an Employer of Record and a local subsidiary to see where the costs flip. You can also dig into specific country profiles to understand the regulatory landscape before you commit. It handles the heavy lifting of calculating annual expenses per hire and estimating the financial impact of terminations. This turns your AI into a specialized global HR finance analyst that can provide concrete numbers for your expansion strategy.
