Insider Transactions Traps for the Unwary With David Sacarelos

May 5, 2025 Podcast
EO Radio Show – Your Nonprofit Legal Resource

Welcome to EO Radio Show – Your Nonprofit Legal Resource. Today, I'm joined by David Sacarelos, a principal at Baker Tilly. We do a deep dive into the penalties under the Internal Revenue Code sections that apply to insider transactions involving private foundations. Using a recently issued IRS Chief Counsel memorandum, we look at the circumstances of loans by a private foundation that led to significant penalties for indirect self-dealing and jeopardizing investments.
