Gander has enough of Dewey & LeBoeuf

One of Dewey & LeBoeuf’s leading figures outside the US is leaving the firm.

Fred Gander, former chairman of the firm’s European Supervisory Committee, is joining KPMG as head of US tax for Europe and the Middle East.

Gander advises financial institutions, multinational corporations and private equity and hedge funds on cross-border taxation of transactions, business operations and capital markets offerings. His advice on US international tax issues extends to foreign tax credit utilization and planning, the subpart F and passive foreign investment company rules, international tax treaty matters and the US taxation of complex financial products and hybrid instruments. His clients also include international groups investing in the US.
