  • END OF "1929 HOLDING COMPANY" REGIME

    After the ruling of the European Commission and the transitional period allowing the 1929 Holding Companies to survive until 31 December 2010, the 1929 Holding Company tax regime will soon disappear and the 1929 Holding Companies will, as from 1 January 2011, become fully taxable companies. In certain cases such change of status will, on the one hand, not have any major impact on the tax situation of such “newly” taxable company, whereas, on the other hand, such change may have substantial impact on the tax situation of the concerned companies and further tailored tax planning would definitely be advisable.
