Description
Real estate ownership information is essential to fighting cross-border corruption. It is also a crucial piece of the puzzle for ensuring greater fairness in taxation. And yet, authorities around the world are struggling to obtain this critical information, particularly when it comes to foreign-owned real estate. This session will present cutting-edge evidence on how major economies are performing in terms of real estate transparency and anti-money laundering measures. Expert panelists will explore key solutions, including legislative reforms to bolster national frameworks and structural solutions for international cooperation.
