US & UK FATCA Reporting Obligations for Cayman Funds
23rd April 2015...Deadlines loom for both the Cayman Islands FATCA Model I Intergovernmental Agreement (“IGA”) with the United States and for the United Kingdom version of FATCA, the “UK–Cayman Agreement to Improve International Tax Compliance.” The nearest of the deadlines is 30th April 2015.
