Tax Council Denies VAT Exemption for Fund Management Due to Lack of Risk Diversification

  • The inquiry involved management services provided to an alternative investment fund focused on collective investment in real estate in Denmark.
  • The fund’s assets were held in two wholly-owned subsidiaries, each investing in a property located about 8 km apart.
  • One property included commercial leases, residential leases, and club rooms.
  • The other property had several buildings with a few commercial leases and antenna rental spaces, undergoing conversion for mixed residential and commercial use.
  • The Tax Council determined the fund’s investments did not meet the risk diversification requirement.
  • Consequently, the Tax Council could not confirm that the services were exempt from VAT under the management of investment associations.
