THE TAX PLANNING STRATEGIES—U.S. AND EUROPE CONFERENCE is designed to address international tax issues for a wide range of practitioners, professionals, and in-house international tax personnel. The format will offer both a review of the basic issues and an in-depth discussion of the latest developments. Case studies will be used to underscore the effect of treaties, court decisions and domestic laws in several jurisdictions to provide an insight into local planning opportunities that European and U.S. tax professionals will find particularly useful.

As with previous conferences, the 2008 program will include panels devoted to CROSS-BORDER MERGERS AND ACQUISITIONS, REORGANIZATIONS AND RESTRUCTURING, FINANCING, AND TRANSFER PRICING. Additional panels will address the impact of practice issues and exposures for international tax professionals; European migrations or mergers between states, compensation arrangements for advisers of hedge or private equity funds, REITs, and the use and abuse of partnerships and other transparent entities.
