The Inward Investment and International Taxation Review brings together the expertise of local counsel in 37 of the most significant jurisdictions worldwide to analyse recent developments in taxation and discuss their commercial implications for corporations with an international footprint.
The reduction of trade barriers and the increased ease of moving goods and services around the globe via the Internet and modern transportation mean that cross-border trading, once the preserve of a small group of multinational companies, is now part of mainstream business activity. Such cross-border activity exposes corporations and the people they employ to tax systems in foreign jurisdictions and brings considerations of tax-efficient business and financing structures to the forefront.
The role of the international tax adviser is to help business reach the desired destination and avoid the hazards. The aim of this book is to provide business and its advisers with topical and current insights of leading experts on the tax issues and opportunities in their respective jurisdictions, or in one case, offered by the European Union. Whilst specific tax advice is always essential, the starting point in any journey is to have a broad understanding of the nature of the potential issues and advantages that lie ahead and this book provides a guide to these.
