After the first in this year's ATOZ VAT London briefings which took place in June, our next session will be happening on 23 September, where members of our team will continue to look at VAT and Investment Funds.

Over the course of two sessions, our Tax Partners, Thibaut Boulangé and Romain Tiffon, and Indirect Tax Director, Justine Guilluy, will give you an overview of, amongst others, the VAT status of Luxembourg Funds and GPs and the scope of the VAT exemptions applicable to Luxembourg funds. They will also share tips and tricks around, for example, the differences between management fees and PPS, the allocation of some transaction costs to the UK Investment Advisor, the co-existing approaches in Luxembourg regarding the VAT status of GPs, etc.
