Description

Cross-border mergers and acquisitions (M&A) and reorganization in Asia Pacific have grown steadily in the recent years. In particular, Hong Kong and Chinese Mainland have emerged as the prime destinations for M&A activities. Cross-border M&A often gives rise to significant tax complexity. If you are considering a deal in Hong Kong and Chinese Mainland, it is essential to understand those critical tax issues to ensure a seamless M&A deal.    In this seminar, the speakers will address to the following elements:

  1. Tax implications in asset deals and equity deals in Hong Kong and Chinese Mainland;
  2. How the refined FSIE regime in Hong Kong may impose additional tax concern in M&A;
  3. How the tax certainty enhancement scheme in Hong Kong may have impact on M&A;
  4. Substance requirement on holding company;
  5. Tax considerations in group restructuring;
  6. Common tax issues to consider in SPA negotiations; and
  7. Post-deal considerations: Pillar Two and transfer pricing
