Part 1 - Update on fund regulation in Europe and United States - and the consequences for Private Equity Funds in Asia!
Both the European Commission and the United States Congress are issuing more stringent compliance rules and regulations for the fund industry. We will briefly discuss the consequences of these new rules for the Asian Private Equity funds.
Part 2 - How to best structure your acquisition further to the tax changes in China and India?
In this part, the speakers will briefly outline the opportunities to lower tax costs so to increase the fund's return by setting up intermediate holding companies. The countries which are typically considered as intermediate holding jurisdictions will be presented from a tax and practical perspective. Further, local developments (China, India etc.) which may limit the benefits of offshore holding structures will be discussed.
