Summary

This book provides a unique and current overview of the tax issues that play a role in the cross-border operation of collective investment vehicles (CIVs) and real estate investment trusts (REITs). Typically, these investment funds function well in a domestic context, where the investors, the fund and the investments are all located in one state. In an international context, however, interesting issues arise, such as questions on the proper allocation of taxing rights, beneficial ownership and non-discrimination. These and other issues are addressed in this book. The book starts with the 2008 and 2010 updates to the OECD Model Tax Convention, adopting the OECD CIV and OECD REIT reports with a view on policymakers and practice. In addition, it places the treatment of CIVs and REITs in an EU tax law perspective. Finally, future developments are also discussed, including the impact of the Undertakings for Collective Investment in Transferable Securities (UCITS) Directives IV and V and the Alternative Investment Fund Managers Directive (AIFMD), from both a direct tax and an indirect tax perspective
