Taxation of the Clawback in a Ponzi Scheme – Maximum Tax Recovery

Any lawyer involved in a clawback settlement agreement must, where possible, in the settlement agreement, distinguish between and earmark the two types of clawback that can happen.  There can be a clawback of profits earned from the ponzi scheme or a clawback of invested principal.  As you will see there is a distinctly different tax treatment between the two clawbacks and as a general rule, clawbacks allocated to profit losses may be more valuable for larger refunds but also may be more treacherous to deal with.

Tax Planning Techniques for the Foreign Real Estate Investor

When an investor finances real estate with large borrowings, the investor runs the risk of continuing to hold their real estate investments in hard times.  Investment in U.S. real estate can provide significant short term profits but often will fare much better when they are viewed as long term investments. Foreign Investors are now finding that they invest in both U.S. real estate and a strong dollar at the same time.  Thus, making their investment even more valuable than ever when compared to their wealth in their own currencies.
