A rigorous analysis of various aspects related to treaty access Tax treaty access is an ongoing challenge for both taxpayers and tax authorities. This volume provides a rigorous analysis of various aspects related to treaty access. Schematically, the volume is divided into four parts. The first part deals with general interpretative issues and principles; the second and third parts cover a wide range of sub-aspects relating to the subjective and objective scope of tax treaties and the recent challenges posed to tax treaty access, while the fourth part focuses on the knotty issues of treaty shopping and abuse. The structure of the volume reflects the necessity to approach access to treaty benefits in a holistic way and view the recent trends through a wide lens. All chapters contain a complete examination of the relevant topics, starting from a historical perspective and continuing with tax treaty law principles and tax practice analysis. Where appropriate, a domestic law and domestic courts’ jurisprudence perspective was added as well as a comparative analysis of several jurisdictions thus complementing the examination of each topic. Finally, special attention is given to treaty abuse and the new GAAR introduced in the 2017 OECD Model together with its interrelation with other treaty and domestic anti-abuse provisions and the impact of these provisions on tax treaty access and tax policy in general.

Structuring Cross-Border Transactions: U.S. Tax Considerations The U.S. international tax provisions that impact cross-border transactions are far-reaching. In recent years, the rules have become more complex, less systematic, and more difficult to make sense of. In this helpful book, a well-known author and practitioner demystifies many of the structuring questions implicated in inbound and outbound cross-border investments, acquisitions, and joint ventures, exposing traps and planning opportunities and showing how the rules really operate in specific fact patterns. All key aspects of structuring a cross-border transaction are analyzed, including: anti-deferral regimes (subpart F and global intangible low-taxed income (GILTI)); how check-the-box (CTB) regulations can maximize tax benefits and minimize tax inefficiencies; how the indirect foreign tax credit provides opportunities for tax beneficial planning; U.S. tax-free reorganization rules as they apply in the cross-border area; U.S. anti-inversion rules that affect cross-border deals; effect of anti-hybrid rules; concerns of particular classes of investors that will influence the form of a transaction; and typical points of friction between buyers and sellers in the cross-border context. Detailed examples, with financial metrics included, help guide decision making at every step and assist in the understanding of key drivers materially impacting results. Treaty considerations and implications are discussed throughout. This book fills a big gap in the tax literature by providing a guide for practitioners from any country who need to understand the U.S. tax consequences of a particular transaction. Its focus on how U.S. tax law affects the ways in which transactions are put together in the real world, and its in-depth analysis of how U.S. tax provisions interrelate and interact with foreign tax rules will prove of immeasurable value to corporate lawyers, finance professionals, and others active in cross-border mergers and acquisitions. It will become an indispensable reference tool for transactional tax practitioners.

This report sets out recommendations for domestic rules to neutralise the effect of hybrid mismatch arrangements and includes changes to the OECD Model Tax Convention to address such arrangements. Once translated into domestic law, the recommendations in Part 1 of the report will neutralise the effect of cross-border hybrid mismatch arrangements that produce multiple deductions for a single expense or a deduction in one jurisdiction with no corresponding taxation in the other jurisdiction. Part 1 of the report will be supplemented by a commentary, which will explain the recommended rules and illustrate their application with practical examples. Part 2 of the report sets out proposed changes to the Model Convention that will ensure the benefits of tax treaties are only granted to hybrid entities (including dual resident entities) in appropriate cases. Part 2 also considers the interaction between the OECD Model Convention and the domestic law recommendations in Part 1.

A key part of the OECD/G20 BEPS Project is addressing the tax challenges arising from the digitalisation of the economy. In October 2021, over 135 jurisdictions joined a ground-breaking plan – the Two-Pillar Solution to Address the Tax Challenges Arising from the Digitalisation of the Economy – to update key elements of the international tax system which is no longer fit for purpose in a globalised and digitalised economy.

This 2017 report sets out recommendations for branch mismatch rules that would bring the treatment of these structures into line with the treatment of hybrid mismatch arrangements as set out in the 2015 Report on Neutralising the Effects of Hybrids Mismatch Arrangements (Action 2 Report). Branch mismatches arise where the ordinary rules for allocating income and expenditure between the branch and head office result in a portion of the net income of the taxpayer escaping the charge to taxation in both the branch and residence jurisdiction. Unlike hybrid mismatches, which result from conflicts in the legal treatment of entities or instruments, branch mismatches are the result of differences in the way the branch and head office account for a payment made by or to the branch. The 2017 report identifies five basic types of branch mismatch arrangements that give rise to one of three types of mismatches: deduction / no inclusion (D/NI) outcomes, double deduction (DD) outcomes, and indirect deduction / no inclusion (indirect D/NI) outcomes. This report includes specific recommendations for improvements to domestic law intended to reduce the frequency of branch mismatches as well as targeted branch mismatch rules which adjust the tax consequences in either the residence or branch jurisdiction in order to neutralise the hybrid mismatch without disturbing any of the other tax, commercial or regulatory outcomes. The annexes of the report summarise the recommendations and set out a number of examples illustrating the intended operation of the recommended rules.
