Global Reward Services Newsletter

Explore the latest in rewards and compensation in our quarterly roundup.

Latest edition

September 2024 Edition

The latest issue provides a thorough overview of significant tax changes and updates across the Americas, Asia Pacific, and Europe, focusing on their impact on global reward structures.

In the Americas, Argentina introduces a special regime for an advance payment of the wealth tax to reduce future tax obligations until 2027. Canada's 2024 federal budget proposes changes affecting capital gains and employee stock options, impacting individuals and employers. The United States has passed a stock repurchase excise tax rule effective from January 2023.

For the Asia Pacific region, the focus is on China, where updates to the tax treatment and management of equity incentives have been announced. The preferential income tax treatment for equity incentives granted by domestic listed companies has been extended to 2027, with a 36-month deferral of the income tax payment for eligible plans.

In Europe, highlights include a decision by Germany's federal tax court on the taxation of partners in international law firms, clarifying that certain payments from a U.S. law firm to its German partners are exempt from German income tax under the U.S.-Germany income tax treaty.
