Description

IRC Section 732 provides guidelines for tax-free distributions of property to partners. The exception to this treatment is the distribution of marketable securities. Section 731(c) dictates that distributions of marketable securities are treated as cash distributions to partners and thereby subject to tax. The exception to this exception is a distribution of marketable securities made to a qualified partner in an investment partnership. (IRC Sec731(c)(3)(A)(iii)).

Private investors might invest in a hedge fund or private equity funds. The former generally invests in publicly traded assets, while the latter invests in private businesses. Hedge funds typically focus on high-return, high-risk, shorter-term investments, while private equity investments target long-term growth investments. Fund managers often receive a carried or profits interest in exchange for services rendered to the partnership. These "applicable partnership investments" are subject to the carried interest provisions under IRC Section 1061. Section 1061 curbs long-term capital gains treatment for income received by partners who provide services. Partnership advisers, members, and managers need to understand the complex taxation principles surrounding investment partnerships.

Listen as our panel of federal taxation experts simplifies the complex rules surrounding taxation of hedge funds, private equity funds, and other investment partnerships.
