Hello,
I'm highly interested in investing in Aro Technologies, but I have concerns about the fiscal impact of this decision. Specifically, I'm uncertain about the implications (See more) of being a shareholder of a US company for both the US and Italian fiscal agencies. While I understand the necessity of paying taxes, I'm worried about potentially complex procedures that may require expensive consultants, that could burns potential investment gains.
Do you have any advice or recommendations regarding this matter?
