Summary: Doug McHoney (PwC's US International Tax Services Co-Leader) is joined by Ninee Dewar, PwC International Tax Services Principal, to discuss the recently released 2022 proposed foreign tax credit (FTC) regulations. These regulations relax some of the stringent creditability requirements that were set forth in the 2021 final FTC regulations. Doug and Ninee dive into changes to the cost recovery requirement, the attribution requirement for withholding tax on royalty payments, and the definition of a reattribution asset for purposes of allocating and apportioning foreign taxes.
