Compliance and Risk Management

A forum was established by the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) to promote growth for international companies. The OECD is a non-governmental entity, and it created a 15-point plan to promote “fair, effective and efficient tax systems.” One of the functions of the OECD’s action plan is to address issues involving profit sharing and base erosion, which helps tax preparers exploit the tax rules of certain countries.

Because the various tax laws among nations are so complicated, they may be exploited to create double non-taxation for companies — non-taxation in the home country and in a foreign country. This double non-taxation undermines the integrity and fairness of both tax systems. Profit shifting and base erosion refer to tax strategies that take advantages of tax rules to shift profits to countries that have a low level of economic activity, which results in a lower tax liability for that company.

Inbound and Outbound Planning

Inbound international activities typically cover two areas:

1. Foreign companies expanding operations to the U.S. through a branch or subsidiary to the foreign operation
2. Foreigners coming to America to invest in American companies, securities or real estate

Outbound international activities include three primary areas:

1. U.S. companies expanding their operations to foreign countries through a branch or subsidiary of the American corporation
2. American citizens investing or conducting business abroad

1. Cross-border transactions that include interpretation of income tax treaties

Foreign Tax Complexities

One of the biggest factors that determine your company’s profit or loss is your tax liability. Penalties for filing taxes wrong are numerous and expensive — both to your finances and your reputation. In the last few years, foreign tax governing bodies and the IRS have increased oversight on multinational company earnings, and have promoted increased transparency on these earnings. This scrutiny has ramped up since the enactment of the Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act (FATCA).

They work with you person-to-person, welcoming your input and feedback, as they identify concerns and problematic areas. Then they provide strategies to avoid the risks, saving your company money.
