The alternative investments (AI) industry continues to search for increased returns from nontraditional assets. This can mean diversifying beyond traditional borders and classes—which makes tax matters more complex.  

Fundamental decisions—where to locate the fund, the choice of entity, how to structure investments and cross-border management and trading functions—can have a critical impact on the tax cost of the return to investors. It also means that identifying global tax efficiencies to maintain increased investor return is one of the most complex business issues the industry faces.

KPMG’s International Tax practice helps AI entities address the intricacies of multiple tax systems and international regulations. We provide an array of international tax services to AI funds, managers and investors to help them achieve cross-border tax economies, mitigate cross-border tax risks and meet international tax compliance requirements.

We help with:

• Fund and managed account platform structuring or market entry
• Global trading tax compliance and planning or treaty-based platform planning
