Juristconsult Chambers is pleased to launch its first Tax
webcast on the OECD's Common Reporting Standard
("CRS").
Initially part of the "Early Adopters Group",
Mauritius has since postponed the effective implementation date of
CRS to 1 January 2017. This decision has been
widely approved by the financial services industry: it will give
time to stakeholders to understand and comment on the draft MRA
guidance and ensure that they have the proper systems and controls
in place to implement CRS correctly. The new date also puts
Mauritius at par with other competing financial services hubs such
as Singapore and Switzerland.
The aim of this webcast is to give a broad overview of the
framework of CRS and to address some issues particularly relevant
in the Mauritius context, such as its implications for management
companies and resident and non-resident Mauritian nationals.
