08/28/2017
Professor Xuan-Thao Nguyen’s latest book, titled, The Intellectual Property Holding Company: Tax Use and Abuse from Victoria’s Secret to Apple, will be published by Cambridge University Press on October 31.
Written with Professor Jeffrey Maine of the University of Maine School of Law, the work examines how many well-known companies have avoided paying billions of dollars in taxes by “parking” their valuable intellectual property assets in holding companies located in tax-favored jurisdictions. The two authors presented a lecture on this subject at IU McKinney in April 2015.
Professor Nguyen holds the Gerald L. Bepko Chair in Law, and is the director of the IU McKinney Center for Intellectual Property Law and Innovation. She is an internationally recognized legal scholar, known for her expertise at the intersections of intellectual property, secured transactions, bankruptcy, licensing, and taxation. She was named a Fellow of the American College of Commercial Finance Lawyers in March 2017.
