How investment firms shield the ultrawealthy from the IRS - ICIJ: An ICIJ investigation examining hundreds of leaked tax forms offers a glimpse into the huge ...
icij.org/inside-icij/2024/04/how-investment-firms-shield-the-ultra-wealthy-from-the-irs/
Quick Glance: How Investment Firms Shield the Ultrawealthy from Tax Authorities
- In 2015, the U.S. Department of Treasury hired economist Owen Zidar to help government officials examine the growing use of complex company structures and trusts by the ultrawealthy. These new investment schemes, often referred to as 'large partnerships,' are pervasive in private equity funds and similar investment firms.
- Following years of budget cuts, it was evident to Owen Zidar, now a professor of economics at Princeton University, that the IRS was not effectively enforcing tax laws for the ultrarich.
- With a significant infusion of funding, the IRS is now making efforts to penetrate these opaque bastions of wealth. An investigation by ICIJ sheds light on the challenges faced by the tax authority in untangling the secretive structures of the ultrawealthy.
- Partnerships play a crucial role in U.S. tax law and have become a focal point for large fortunes, contributing to a poorly understood aspect of growing economic inequality. Despite additional funding for the IRS, addressing large partnerships remains a formidable task.
