FAQ Highlights
Outbound direct investment refers to a company or investor expanding into another country by establishing operations, acquiring a business, forming a joint venture, or making a strategic long-term investment.
Unlike passive investment, ODI usually involves active ownership, management participation, operational planning, regulatory filings, capital structuring, and long-term market development.
Regulatory requirements vary depending on the home country, destination country, industry, investment size, ownership structure, and capital flow mechanism.
Businesses may need to prepare investment approvals, corporate documents, capital remittance records, foreign exchange documentation, tax registrations, licensing applications, and compliance reports. MABS helps clients map these requirements before execution.
Cross-border investments should be structured based on ownership objectives, tax efficiency, regulatory restrictions, capital flow, risk exposure, repatriation strategy, and future exit options.
Common structures may include wholly owned subsidiaries, joint ventures, holding companies, acquisition vehicles, or strategic partnership entities. MABS helps evaluate each option and design structures aligned with commercial and compliance goals.
Key tax considerations include corporate income tax, withholding tax, indirect tax such as VAT or GST, transfer pricing, double taxation agreements, profit repatriation, capital gains tax, and intercompany financing.
A strong ODI structure should consider both the home jurisdiction and destination market to reduce tax leakage, avoid compliance issues, and support long-term investment returns.
Businesses should consider regulatory risk, political and economic risk, currency exposure, tax complexity, partner reliability, market demand, legal enforceability, labor requirements, operational capability, and exit restrictions.
MABS helps clients assess these risks early through market research, due diligence, investment structuring, partner screening, and cross-border compliance planning.
