FS Tax Newsletter | June 2020
In this edition of the FS Tax Newsletter we address two developments initiated by the Dutch tax authorities: the further development of horizontal monitoring and the cancellation of rulings confirming the VAT exemption for investment management services provided to CLOs. We also discuss four other VAT-related subjects: an interesting judgment from the Court of Appeals Den Bosch regarding the VAT recovery methodology of a financial institution, the opinion of the Advocate General of the Court of Justice of the European Union on the VAT treatment of purchased investment management services that are used for both Special Investment Funds as well as non-Special Investment Funds, a judgment by the Noord-Holland District Court on the VAT position of a company pension fund, and recent developments with respect to the term ‘fixed establishment’ for VAT purposes
