IRS Addresses Back-to-Back Arrangement's Failure to Comply with Section 409A
Thomson Reuters Practical Law Link to more items from this source
June 28, 2017

"The back-to-back arrangement involved a foreign investment fund, the ultimate service recipient (USR), and its investment manager, the intermediate service recipient (ISR). The fund and its manager were parties to a deferred compensation arrangement (the USR plan) under which the manager deferred some of its management and performance fees. The manager sponsored a deferred compensation arrangement for its employees (the ISR plan). Under the plans, the deferral elections and payment events triggering payments from the fund to the manager were coordinated with the deferral elections and payment events triggering payments from the manager to its employees. The IRS concluded that the USR plan did not meet the requirements of Section 409A."
