Stephen Ross isn’t worried about federal government’s new LLC disclosure law: VIDEO

He says new regulations on Manhattan condo purchases likely won't impact business


Related Companies’ Stephen Ross says he isn’t concerned about the Treasury Department’s newfound interest in secret buyers of luxury real estate in New York City.

Last month the U.S. Treasury Department announced a program that will monitor all-cash purchases for high-end real estate by shell companies, starting in New York and Miami. Ross said that he doesn’t anticipate the new regulations affecting his business.

Ross also discussed Coach Inc. selling its 40 percent share in 10 Hudson Yards, and what he sees as high interest in Hudson Yards as the “new heart” of New York. [Bloomberg] — Kathryn Brenzel
