SGR not liable for extinct common fund’s VAT debt: Court of Cassation ruling.

• When a mutual investment fund is extinguished, the management company (SGR) is not directly responsible for the unpaid VAT unless the Tax Agency asserts a separate liability.
• The Court of Cassation ruled that the SGR is only responsible for accounting tasks, and the fund itself is liable for taxes.
• The SGR is the formal taxpayer, but the fund is the one responsible for taxes in substance.
