About the Webinar

The current economic environment has resulted in many businesses having to restructure their financing arrangements or waive debt obligations. While the arrangements entered into between debtors and creditors may be commercially prudent, the parties involved seldom consider the tax consequences that may arise from such dealings. This session aims to inform practitioners about the tax consequences of forgiving or restructuring debt. It covers:

  • What is a debt forgiveness?
  • Analysis of the commercial debt forgiveness provisions and the debt forgiveness provisions in Division 7A (e.g. Div 7A consequences of guarantee or debt parking arrangements)
  • CGT implications of forgiving or restructuring debts
  • Analysis of the bad debt provisions
  • What are the tax consequences of writing-off an unpaid present entitlement?
  • Practical case studies (e.g. tax issues for forgiving debit and credit loans)
