IFA Australia: Panel discussion on the Hicks decision and implications for group restructures

ABL Sydney Chifley Tower, Level 24/2 Chifley Square, Sydney NSW 2000/ Hybrid event

Branch

Time: 5:30pm – 7:30pm, local time

IFA Australia is pleased to host a panel discussion on the Full Federal Court’s decision in Hicks and its implications for both domestic and international group restructures. Handed down just before Christmas, Hicks has largely flown under the radar, yet represents a significant loss for the ATO. The decision raises important considerations for go-forward tax planning, structuring and advice, particularly in the context of intra-group transactions and restructures. Chaired by Shaun Cartoon, the panel will explore the reasoning in Hicks, practical takeaways for advisers and taxpayers, and how the decision may influence future ATO approaches and litigation risk both in domestic and international settings
