04 - 05 Jun 2012International Tax Aspects of Private Equity and Venture Capital

This course is designed to provide participants with an in-depth analysis of the legal and tax issues related to private equity and venture capital. More specifically, it describes the legal and tax aspects that have to be taken into account in making the investment decision and it gives a detailed overview of the structures and techniques used in daily practice.

The course is articulated into two days. After a general introduction and analysis of the applicable legislation, Day 1 is dedicated to discuss the legal and tax framework for private equity and venture capital investments and the tax aspects of fund structuring, focusing on tax treaties and EU law. Day 2 deals with the most-commonly used acquisition techniques and with the indirect tax aspects of fund structuring. The course will be taught by experienced international practitioners specialized in the field of private equity and venture capital.
 

The course represents an ideal instrument for private equity investors, fund managers, lawyers, tax consultants and professionals in general who wish to gain a complete understanding on fund structuring and acquisition techniques.

This is an intermediate level course. Participants should be familiar with the structure of tax systems and tax treaties and their allocation rules, in addition to the domestic law of at least one country, in particular as it relates to cross-border situations.
