AbstractThe world of taxation is changing on an international, European and national level. Impending reforms in the context of the OECD’s BEPS initiative, new EU tax legislation, and shifting administrative and judicial approaches to domestic and cross-border fund structures will have a significant impact on funds, putting pressure on business and on national legislatures alike to stay ahead.
Luxembourg’s regulatory and taxation framework for investment funds combines unique flexibility with legal certainty, making it Europe’s leading centre for investment funds. In light of their paramount importance to Luxembourg’s economy, this conference brings together academics and practitioners from Luxembourg, Europe and the US to share their expertise on questions arising from three different angles: national law and policy, European Union law, and international tax law.
Leading experts will give their insights on legal reforms in Luxembourg and Germany, the Commission’s state aid practice, non-discrimination rules applied to funds taxation, the Anti-Tax-Avoidance Directive, tax treaty protection of different CIVs, VAT treatment of funds and fund managers, and the consequences of the global drive towards exchange of information on existing cross-border investment structures.
