Brazil and Russia are presenting mobility challenges for many multinational companies from both a legal and a tax compliance perspective.  

Join Bill Delabar as we address the some of the specific issues that each country raises and attempt to determine the best way to structure assignments into and out of these emerging market countries.  

This Bloomberg BNA Webinar is designed for HR professionals who want to know the basics of Brazilian or Russian expatriate assignment issues. It provides tips on how to deploy individuals in these two countries and covers key topics of interest for U.S. employers doing business—or planning to-- in Brazil or Russia.
