Establishing overseas operations: tax and treasury considerations

Article Abstract:

Foreign countries' tax laws, political stability, cultural differences, proposed operational methodologies, and organizational structures must be evaluated by corporate controllers and treasurers before a business begins operating overseas. Methods for reviewing and assessing the financial impact of a foreign country's tax laws, commercial practices, daily business practices, foreign exchange rates, and general business laws are discussed. The financial management considerations also include assessments of various operating structures available in the overseas location, including: licensing arrangements, subsidiary formations, foreign corporation formations, or joint ventures and partnerships with existing foreign companies. Financing and tax problems to avoid are also discussed for foreign business operations.
