In this podcast, we will look at issues surrounding cross border withholding tax and its place in the financial landscape. To start thing’s off, I’m going to give you an overview of the world of withholding tax. Essentially, it boils down to these four tenants:

• Governments need money
• Withholding tax is the not-so-invisible money earner
• Risk drives change
• No-one trusts financial institutions
