Abstract: These proposed regulations provide greater certainty as to which entity will be the substitute agent for the group by identifying a default successor agent for the group. Under the proposed regulations, an entity (whether foreign or domestic) is a default successor if it becomes the single entity primarily liable, pursuant to applicable law, for the tax liability of the former agent of the group upon the termination of the agent's existence. When the agent for the group terminates under applicable law and there is no default successor, the agent for the group may designate a substitute agent.
