The slides from G&F's Budget Briefing Session

Greenwoods & Freehills (G&F) and the Investment & Financial Services Association (IFSA) recently held breakfast seminars in Sydney or Melbourne discussing the opportunity to review the tax arrangements applying to managed investment trusts and assessing options for introducing a specific tax regime that would reduce complexity, increase certainty and minimise compliance costs.

We will soon welcome a new secondee, Max Severens, from the Loyens & Loeff Tokyo office where he has been for the last 3 years.  To introduce Max, we are holding sessions looking at equity and real property investments in Japan using TK’s, TMK’s and J-REIT’s.

 

Greenwoods & Freehills welcomes our latest secondment, Jeroen van Mourik to our Sydney office from Benelux based law firm, Loyens & Loeff.

We recently hosted a 2 day Real Estate Investment Trust (REIT) conference for clients on 5-6 February 2007. 

Speakers from international advisory firms were invited to discuss the impacts of REIT structures in their respective jurisdictions.  A copy of their presentations is available in this article.
