Talk:Market-linked CD

Taxation
The citation Union Bank Disclosure Statement, Market-Linked Certificates of Deposit, due March 30, 2016 (MLCD No. 198) is a defunct link.

I looked at possible updates for the Taxation section, but got confused looking at the prospectus details for the CDs listed in Stock, Index & Basket Linked CDs | FISN. Tax treatments are listed in:


 * Prospectus for Barclays Bank, page 34
 * Prospectus for Bank of the West, page 46

Both imply that taxation is "unclear" and that the IRS may not agree with the bank's interpretation. Should the wiki be updated? If so, I'm not sure what to do. --LadyGeek 19:41, 20 March 2016 (EDT)
