The NYU Graduate Tax Program and the Tax Practice of KPMG LLP have joined together to create a lecture series on current issues in taxation. Distinguished lecturers are brought to NYU each year to discuss a timely issue that may arise from recent or proposed legislation, regulations, cases or IRS rulings.

This year, WilmerHale Partner Richard Andersen will be providing a level-setting "primer" on the US taxation of portfolio investment and business income by foreign persons. In addition, he will participate in a debate session on the topic of US treaty overrides.
