The French Senate has adopted an amendment to the Draft Finance Act for 2009 (article 4bis of the DFA) for the purpose to address the tax treatment of carried interest shares granted to FCPR (Fonds Communs de Placement à Risque) and SCR (sociétés de capital à risque) managers.
Subject to any possible amendments, the proposed new tax regime for carried interest shares would apply to FCPRs and SCRs set up as from January 1st, 2009, and to shares/rights issued as from this date.
