Overview

Why you should attend

In a global business, the tax laws of the United States may impact transactions regardless of where the transactions take place. A working knowledge of the U. S. international tax rules is, therefore, of paramount importance to a wide variety of tax and corporate professionals.

At this program, some of the world’s leading tax experts will discuss the current rules of U.S. international taxation. Each panel will focus upon a distinct international tax issue and describe how the U.S. tax rules address this issue. In particular, each panel will focus upon how these rules impact financings, mergers, acquisitions and other commercial activities. In addition, we will analyze legislative proposals that may change these rules and discuss the likely impact of such changes on global business operations.
