Legal Angle


As if the market pressures of shareholders weren't sufficient to encourage proactive behavior, legal professionals, as well as the ratings agencies, are now more actively considering the risks withholding can pose if left unmitigated through either relief at source or remedial recovery.

It would be excellent if companies with international shareholder bases took positive and proactive action to help their shareholders get their due entitlements. This will happen over time. Yesterday was complete ignorance. Today is corporate governance policy. Tomorrow will be regulation and law.

The principle of the link between corporate governance and withholding tax is the degree to which issuers and intermediaries have a responsibility to educate and facilitate the return of maximum investment to shareholders.
