PWM Taxation - country level detail

CFA Level III Portfolio Management
#1

In relation to taxation in PWM for individuals and/or corps, does anyone know if we need to know specific tax rules for countries (e.g. Singapore exempts most dividends from Singapore companies & exempts most domestic interest, Switzerland exempts most cap gains)?

The material alludes to not needing to know these specifics, although the in-reading Examples do go into it.

Appreciate any insight

Memorizing country-specific :poop:? I want to know if you understand concepts rather than memorization. :+1:

that’s good. because beyond the country-specific stuff, the vast majority of tax curriculum is simply math
