The impact of tax on portfolio performance can no longer be ignored. Despite the implementation of the Automatic Exchange of Information global standard, tax harmonisation across multiple jurisdictions remains a pipe dream.
Join Global Custodian and the Swiss Stock Exchange for a 45-minute webcast exploring the implementation and maintenance of tax services – a notoriously complex area to perfect – and the importance of efficient after-tax performance to create additional value for clients and avoid double taxation.
Agenda
- Looking back at the industry’s collective efforts over the past couple of decades, what has been achieved in tax services and what remains a challenge?
- Where should investment managers place tax services on their list of priorities?
- How do you quantify the impact of after-tax performance on investment returns?
- Where do tax services sit on the continuum of securities services automation, for example between settlement (highly automated) and corporate actions (highly resistant)?
- Given their complexity, what are the options for outsourcing tax services?
