M&A transactions are a time of change due to increasing complexity and uncertainty in tax rules globally. In order to achieve long-term value, it is critical for investors to create the most tax-efficient structures for acquisition, holding and future exit. Hence, tax risk is an important consideration that M&A professionals will need to take into account as they navigate in the new reality of entering into real estate transactions.
In order to adjust to this “new normal” and to enhance the level of tax certainty, businesses may look for innovative solutions such as a tax liability insurance to manage their tax risks.
You are invited to join this event, where the speakers will share about typical tax risks and uncertain tax treatments associated with real estate transactions in Asia Pacific and the use of tax liability insurance as a strategic tool to such risks.
