Securitisation Background.
The Irish securitisation regime, often called ‘Section 110’, was introduced to promote securitisation services for the financial sector operating in Dublin’s International Financial Services Sector (“IFSC”).
01. Favourable Tax Treatment.
The tax incentives available to Section 110 entities are very attractive.
02. Established infrastructure.
Over the years, Ireland has developed a robust infrastructure to support securitisation activities under the Section 110 regime.
03. Reputation as a jurisdiction.
Ireland’s membership in the EU and OECD positions it as a reputable jurisdiction rather than an offshore location.
04. Extensive Treaty Network.
Section 110 companies typically benefit from Ireland’s extensive double taxation treaty network (74 countries are in effect with a further 2 agreed), which helps minimise potential withholding tax liabilities.
05. US Check the Box Options.
The Irish SPC may elect to “check-the-box” to be treated as a tax transparent partnership or a “disregarded entity” (rather than an opaque “per se corporation” for US federal tax purposes).
06. Legal Framework and Language
Ireland’s English-speaking environment and common law system are advantageous for investors, particularly those from the US and UK.
