In this episode of the “GILTI Conscience” podcast, David Farhat, Nate Carden and Stefane Victor are joined by Mike Gaffney of Atlantic Global Risk to talk about tax insurance and its role in addressing uncertainty in tax laws.
Mike describes the workings of tax insurance, including the length of a typical policy, particularly surrounding a deal, and explored ideas such as deciding what covered tax position to insure and how various jurisdictions come into play.
The conversation takes listeners through the impact that evolving international tax law has had on tax insurance; what multinationals need to consider when exploring a policy; recognizing risk, particularly surrounding BEPS; and tax insurance in an M&A transaction.
