McLagan's Market Practice Studies: Expatriate Practices and Latin America
Expatriate Practices Study
As firms work to exploit time sensitive regional opportunities, the successful administration of expatriate assignments is key. One focus of the Expatriate Practices Study is the nature of these assignments, including normal durations, provisions regarding repatriation, and guidelines for those that become permanent.
Another key component of the study involves traveling and moving expenses. Various living expenses, such as immigration costs, tax preparation assistance, tax equalization, transportation, and cost of living allowances, are also captured. The study also covers travel for family members, along with job placement assistance for spouses and education for children.
South America / Central America / Caribbean Study
Emerging Markets are playing an increasingly large role in firms’ business strategy, and the South America / Central America / Caribbean Study will give clients high level compensation data, along with trend information on business developments and regional growth.
The study focuses exclusively on firms in financial services, thus providing the most relevant data to clients with footprints in South America / Central America / Caribbean.
