Description

*Date changed from 6 October 2020*

Thinking to expand your business, acquire some assets or company shares in the US? In any case, you should consider the potential US tax risks and exposures from the acquisition.

With an ever-changing tax landscape in the US, many businesses are feeling the pinch of navigating the grey when planning their acquisitions. The US Tax Reform signed into law in December 2017, the 2020 CARES Act in response to the economic impact from COVID, to name a few, have shaped how businesses look at US targets.

In this introductory seminar, the speakers will discuss at a high level what to look out for from a US tax perspective before acquiring US assets or shares in a US company. Key topics will include the following:

  • Site selection –what are some common US tax considerations for business incorporation and operation?
  • Asset vs shares– what should I buy?
  • The nitty-gritty – how may the changes in US tax law affect my target’s historical US tax issues?
  • The handshake – how do I close the deal with the target I want covered with protections?

 

The original title of this webinar is “Demystifying Due Diligence: US Target meets Sherlock Holmes“. If you have already enrolled this webinar, there is no need to enroll again.
