2. Topics to Be Covered
Taxlinked.net - the online community for lawyers, accountants, trustees and tax specialists.
The goal of this webinar is to cover many of
the issues related to taxation in the United
States and Trump’s detailed proposals to
tackle some of these problems.
The items to be tackled include, but are not
limited to, corporate taxation, estate taxes,
the border adjustment tax, renouncing
one’s US citizenship and the new
government's role in OECD-led initiatives
like BEPS and CRS.

3. A Few Questions
Taxlinked.net - the online community for lawyers, accountants, trustees and tax specialists.
More specifically, some of the questions to be discussed include:
• Will there be any changes to the double tax avoidance
treaties signed by the US?
• What proposals have been made to change the tax rates
structure?
• What are the proposals for taxing Long Term Capital Gains
and Dividends?
• Since tax rates will drop overall under the proposals, how will
the proposals offset the inevitable revenue reductions? We all
know that they cannot let the federal deficit skyrocket, so
how will the proposals claw back some revenue?
• What's planned for the US Estate Tax?
• What are the proposals for taxation of unincorporated
businesses such as sole proprietorships and partnerships?
• How will cross border taxation impact exports into the US as
this levy is akin to an anti-dumping duty to protect domestic
US manufacturers?
