The tax courts had to clarify whether an "arrangement fee" and an "agency and security agency fee" are to be included as interest expenses when determining the interest limitation under Section 4h (1) of the German Income Tax Act.

The Supreme Tax Court held that the agency fee must be regarded as interest expense, but that the situation is different for the arrangement fee.
