Epstein's Tax Schemes for Clients Face Scrutiny Years Later

Leon Black sold a Giacometti sculpture to Epstein to fund buying a Cezanne painting, avoiding capital gains taxes.
Epstein provided tax and estate planning services for Black, receiving over $150 million in fees from 2013-2017.
The Senate Finance Committee is investigating if Epstein's fees from Black should be considered gifts for tax purposes.
Transactions between Epstein and Black likely met technical tax requirements but could be questionable 'straw man' deals.
Years after taking advantage of tax loopholes, Epstein's work for wealthy clients faces renewed scrutiny.
