I work at an accounting firm. I do tax advisory services every day, especially in relation to international tax issues.
Recently, our practice of inbound transactions (i.e. investments in Japan) tends to decrease whereas our advices on outbound transactions from such as Japanese financial institutions to foreign countries are increasing. The tax issues raised in connection with outbound transactions are quite different from those of inbound ones. For example, timing of recognising income (depending on investment vehicles used), foreign tax credit and anti-tax haven legislation (similar to CFC) are likely to be main tax issues for Japanese corporation that invest in foreign countries. Therefore, now I feel that our tax practice would naturally change as time goes by.
