In this case, the Finnish Central Tax Board gave a preliminary ruling KVL:2022/42 on 28th September 2022 on the VAT deduction right of share acquisition costs accrued to a holding company that is owned indirectly by a private equity fund. This new ruling follows the previous ruling issued by the Central Tax Board on the same topic. We expect the ruling to be published shortly.
