Simulation & PlanningBy adding this dimension to Comtax® Basic 2010, the real power of the Comtax® System is released. For selected countries (20, 40, 60 or 129) limitless scenarios can be simulated and analysed. Underlying data and settings can be modified in a project environment in which current and future factors can be considered.

To further enhance the tax planning process, two optional modules can be added: These modules addressing Capital Gains and Thin Capitalisation work fully integrated with Comtax® Simulation & Planning for the countries chosen.

The Capital Gains ModuleThis module computes and analyses the capital gains taxation on cross-border sales of shares. It automatically applies the capital gains consequences of a sale on any simulated ownership scenario.

In the process of analysing the cross-border tax effect of capital gains on shares, you meet several variables that need to be taken into consideration, such as the size and time of the shareholding, the taxation rates prevailing in the country of the company issuing shares, the taxation in the country of the seller and the influence of the country of the purchaser.

All of these variables are considered by the Capital Gains module in the Comtax® System. A module that can be instructed to instantly simulate on the basis of changed parameters, that can both forecast and model on the basis of the information you provide. Information regarding the impact of the shareholding level and the holding time of the asset is easily displayed through graphic charts.

The Thin Capitalisation ModuleIn the process of capitalising a company by debt or equity, it is important to analyse the thin capitalisation situation. This is due to the fact that a capitalisation through a loan, which generally is the preferred solution, from the investors' point of view, might lead to a less advantageous tax situation when confronted with such anti-avoidance rules.

This function considers the thin capitalisation from both the borrowing company and the lending company's perspective.

By ticking a checkbox, the Comtax® System will consider the thin capitalisation situation for all interest (intercompany) simulations made in the system for the chosen countries.
