Tax Crackdown on Hedge Fund Activities

Hedge funds are facing a tax crackdown as financial watchdogs take a greater interest in their activities and geographical locations. The rapid development of new investment strategies devised by hedge funds has attracted the interest of tax authorities. The focus is now on taxation because of the complex arrangements employed by the industry. It could be risky for hedge funds to establish a taxable presence in European jurisdictions where tax policies remained uncertain.

Hedge fund experts believe that the lack of consistency in taxation policy towards hedge funds in Europe is limiting the opportunities for the funds to distribute their products throughout the continent and fragmenting the market. Regulators have taken a close look at the way funds are run, while the funds themselves have sought financial backing from mainstream institutional investors. I believe that tax crackdown on hedge fund activities will at least reduce the chance of fraud cases.
