Private Client Tax Committee (Lead)

Description

This panel examines appropriate advice and planning for high net worth (HNW) clients moving into or out of Asia. The movement of Asian clients and key family members can have tax consequences on their family succession structures. The panel considers these issues in the context of examining the tax and legal regimes of popular destination countries for outbound Asian clients. It also examines appropriate tax and structuring advice for private clients entering Asia and, in particular, considers the planning opportunities offered by the territorial source basis of taxation in certain Asian countries, and the beneficial planning opportunities this can provide. The panel also discusses the myriad tax and legal issues surrounding popular asset classes in Asia, including real estate.
