Happy New Year ,

Happy New Year 2017

Two Resolutions for New Year 2017 that Reduce the Cost of Tax

1) Deferral of tax on carried interest reduces the cost of tax.

Here is how to extend the tax holiday on carried interest retained offshore.

The total estimate of carried interest that will be taxed in 2018 is between one billion and one hundred billion.

Hedge fund principals know that deferred management and incentive fees retained offshore would become subject to tax in the 2017 tax year, whether or not funds are repatriated.

Since 2009, hedge fund principals have known that deferred management and incentive fees retained offshore would become subject to tax in the 2017 tax year, whether or not funds are repatriated. Internal Revenue Code Section 457A, along with IRS Notice 2009-8 and Revenue Ruling 2014-18, sets forth the particulars for taxation of this deferred compensation. If you are a hedge fund manager who has accumulated a significant deferred compensation balance offshore, 2017 will be a tax year of reckoning. Any funds deferred and held offshore will become subject to tax at your highest marginal tax rates. The imposition of this tax can be avoided.

The solution then becomes, ''How to make the transition under IRC 402(b) section and compliantly to tax avoidance law?''

2) Deferral of Gains and Accumulations Reduces the Cost of Tax Coming up in 2017 we have the ''Son of FATCA'' which is the Automatic Exchange of Financial Information (AEoI) i.e. over 130 countries. This type of account is carved out as exempt from financial information reporting at the Institutional level and reporting of beneficiaries are excluded. This deferral of gains and accumulations account is formally recognized under the Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act (FATCA), Common Reporting Standard (CRS), Automatic Exchange of Information (AEoI) and specifically mentioned in Double Tax Agreements (DTA) and Intergovernmental Agreements (IGA); which means it checks all the tax and regulatory compliant boxes in the USA, OECD (including Canada, Mexico, the E.U.) and throughout Asia.

This compliant structure is crucial for asset protection, deferral of tax, privacy and secrecy because it is legal non-disclosure at the financial institution level and recognized and registered tax compliant at the individual level.

The solution then becomes, ''How to make this government regulated, tax rules compliant and excluded account is a financial account that individuals can use to defer income on gains and accumulations?''
