International Tax

International initiatives to counteract tax evasion

Tax and other regulatory authorities around the world are strengthening measures to counteract tax evasion. As an example, the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development ("OECD") has developed an action plan to prevent base erosion and profit shifting ("BEPS"), as well as legislative initiatives on the information exchange for tax purposes.

Such initiatives may result in a need for taxpayers to review and adapt their tax planning strategies. Our international tax consulting team is ready to assist you with (i) analysis of the international tax matters and (ii) recommendations on the tax efficient structures meeting relevant legislative requirements.
