Foreign Trusts
Kieran Tahir made this Official Information request to Inland Revenue Department
The request was partially successful.
From: Kieran Tahir
Dear Inland Revenue Department,
I am writing to request information regarding the New Zealand foreign trusts still in existence subsequent to the 2017 change in disclosure requirements.
My requests for information are as follows:
1. How many foreign trusts remain active in New Zealand?
2. What is the value of the capital and assets held within these foreign trusts?
3. Has any information about a New Zealand foreign trust been exchanged with any foreign government since the new disclosure legislation has come into effect?
I am requesting this information as part of a research component of a Masters degree in Politics and International Relations at the University of Auckland
Thank you for your help.
Yours faithfully,
Kieran Tahir
