1) Increasing International Tax Reporting Requirements for Multinational Companies :
Transfer pricing and country by country template
Treaty abuse provision
Digital economy
Hybrid mismatches

The OECD is proposing drastic changes to the existing tax rules that could dramatically affect companies tax
situations. In particular, the digital economy rules have a virtual PE that can cause an organization to have tax nexus
in a country where it does not possess a physical presence. We will explore the major proposed changes that are
expected to be adopted by the member countries.

2) Corporations Providing Cross Border Compensation/Benefits Programs Also Beware!
Potential pitfalls relating to taxation of executive compensation are increasing around the globe. Companies must be
equipped to navigate multiple, changing, jurisdictional taxation regimes and be compliant with rigorous regulatory
requirements or risk costly penalties and taxes. In addition, we will explore how to determine if your retirement
arrangement is exempt from the U.S. Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act (FATCA) and if your company or executives
are at risk.

Update on FATCA relating to trusts and how the Foreign Pension Exception Rules work
IRC 409A has a long reach in terms of taxation and penalties on global deferred compensation income





WeiserMazars LLP, Barnea & Co., and The Manufacturers Association of Israel
invite you to a Breakfast Workshop:

Global Businesses Under Fire
Tightening Tax and Reporting Requirements

Thursday Morning, May 8, 2014
9:00 AM 11:30 AM
Manufacturers Association of Israel - Hamered 29, Tel Aviv













3) How FATCA Can Trap the Unaware
The July 1st deadline for compliance with FATCA is drawing near, and many MNCs believe that they do not need to
comply. They are wrong.

MNCs that are currently in compliance with existing U.S. tax reporting and withholding requirements will take on new
responsibilities and requirements, and may also be surprised to learn that certain types of non-U.S. affiliates,
including holding companies and treasury centers, can be treated as financial institutions for FATCA purposes. We
will explain how FATCA impacts your operations in this informative session.
