Our panel of international mergers and acquisitions strategists will present examples and scenarios applying the existing and proposed guidelines.

Description
Some companies with dual-resident status are treated as domestic entities in the U.S. and abroad; a U.S. domestic entity may operate through branches or units in foreign countries or two domestic U.S. corporations filing a consolidated return could generate net operating losses deductible in two countries. IRC Section 1503(d) DCL rules and the related regulations were enacted to prevent entities operating in the U.S. and abroad from double-dipping net operating losses.
In August 2024, proposed regulations REG-105128-23 were issued to recognize and work with the Pillar II rules and the 15 percent minimum global tax. These rules clarify that a tax intended to ensure a minimum tax rate is an income tax and state that a qualified domestic top-up tax and an income inclusion rule can be considered an income tax. They also explain the interaction of DCL with intercompany transactions, eliminate certain stock sales from DCL, and incorporate other significant changes. Multinational tax advisers must grasp the DCL rules and understand the implications of the new proposed regulations.
Listen as our panel of international tax experts reviews the existing DCL rules and the impact of the recently proposed regulations.
