Maria Júlia Mendonça is the author of the book "Transfer of assets and exchange of shares under the tax neutrality regime – a comparative analysis” 10-11-2016

Maria Júlia Mendonça, RPBA’s Trainee Lawyer, is the author of the book "Transfer of assets and exchange of shares under the tax neutrality regime – a comparative analysis”.

This work results from her Master's thesis in Tax Law at the Catholic University, under the guidance of RPBA's managing partner, Ricardo da Palma Borges, also a teacher at that University.

The aim of this book is to fill the gap in the tax doctrine regarding the treatment of transfer of assets’ and exchange of shares’ operations under the tax neutrality regime. To do this, a comparative approach is adopted, starting from the assumption that these two operations are interchangeable, under certain conditions, achieving the same final business structure, but with significant differences in the applicable legal framework, depending on whether one or the other is chosen.

This book will be very useful for all professionals (lawyers, consultants, auditors, chartered accountants, teachers of taxation and tax law, etc.) who deal with corporate restructuring operations or who are interested in this subject, as well as for university students of law, economics, accounting and management.
