What's new in International Tax: |
|
|
Luxembourg is known throughout the world for its
financial institutions and tax-exempt holding companies
for many years now. However, the changes in the tax
environment have been such that, for more than a decade,
international group structuring has been moving from
the use of exempted companies to the use of normally
taxable companies and financial instruments.
Luxembourg responded to this trend by developing an
attractive tax regime for holding companies subject
to the common Luxembourg corporate tax regime. The
latter regime, combined with the efficient use of
financial instruments, has made Luxembourg one of
the most reputable marketplaces for international
structuring.
The Challenge
In a competitive, challenging and constantly changing
business environment, structuring the business efficiently
becomes a need for all international groups. Answering
this need is a complex issue requiring a broad range
of knowledge and experience from an accounting, tax
and regulatory perspective.
PricewaterhouseCoopers solutions
In order to develop a high level expertise, PricewaterhouseCoopers
Luxembourg is organised in industry sectors and challenges.
International tax structuring (ITS) is
one of the chalenges in Luxembourg which has developed
most intensely over the last ten years. Our cross-discipline
team is able to provide you with in-depth analysis
of your needs and suitable solutions in order to improve
your international shareholding or financial structures.
What’s in it for you
By setting up an apparently more complex structure
or simply by using the appropriate financial instrument,
the tax charge paid by your subsidiaries or levied
on profit repatriation can be minimised. This will
allow your group to reduce its global tax burden.
