This book was released on 2015-05-29 with total page 30 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: International corporate tax issues are prominent in public debate, notably with the G20-OECD project addressing Base Erosion and Profit Shifting (‘BEPS’). But while there is considerable empirical evidence for advanced countries on the cross-country fiscal externalities at the heart of these issues, there is almost none for developing countries. This paper uses panel data for 173 countries over 33 years to explore their magnitude and nature, focusing particularly on developing countries and applying a new method to distinguish between spillover effects through real decisions and through avoidance —and quantify the revenue impact of the latter. The results suggest that spillover effects on the tax base are if anything a greater concern for developing countries than for advanced—and a significant one.

Download or read book Global Challenges in Public Finance and International Relations written by ?ahin Duran, Deniz and published by IGI Global. This book was released on 2019-03-29 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although the concept of international public goods has been established, new international public needs arise by the day. For example, while there are many taxation problems and debates that have not yet been resolved internationally, many new tax-related problems like international transfer pricing, taxation of virtual profits, and taxation of electronic commerce are being added. These issues require studies that will discuss a new agenda and propose solutions for these dilemmas and problems. Global Challenges in Public Finance and International Relations provides an innovative and systematic examination of the present international financial events and institutions, international financial relations, and fiscal difficulties and dilemmas in order to discuss solutions for potential problems in the postmodern world. Highlighting topics such as international aid, public debt, and corporate governance, this publication is designed for executives, academicians, researchers, and students of public finance.
Download or read book Base Erosion and Profit Shifting and Developing Country Tax Administrations written by M. Lennard and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The OECD membership comprises thirty-four countries, and adding G20 countries which are not OECD members gives a total of forty-two countries participating most directly in the base erosion and profit shifting (BEPS) norm setting. There are therefore 151 UN Member countries whose participation in the BEPS process can be seen as relatively peripheral. Their political and representational significance and its relevance to global tax norm setting is often missed by a relevant but incomplete focus on the economic importance of the Group of Twenty (G20). The application to, and adaptation of, the BEPS outcomes to those countries, the likelihood of their commitment to such outcomes, and the way in which any such commitment is likely to find expression in practice are important to businesses economically engaging with such countries. In particular, an awareness of the way in which such countries are likely to view BEPS norm development and implementation, and to add to or depart from it on issues like the taxation of the services economy, should be a necessary part of any business planning, especially for global multinational enterprises (MNEs) seeking to engage with those countries as long-term business and development partners going forward. This article considers some of the key BEPS Actions and "Inactions" in this context. The Actions considered are: Actions 1 (the digital economy), 6 (inappropriate granting of treaty benefits), 7 (artificial avoidance of permanent establishment status), 8-10 (aligning transfer pricing with value creation) and 13 (transfer pricing documentation).

Download or read book Winning the Tax Wars written by Brigitte Alepin and published by Kluwer Law International B.V.. This book was released on 2016-04-24 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the past few decades, the concentration of wealth and property in the hands of a few has been facilitated by tax evasion, tax avoidance, and above all by tax competition. Fortunately, a determined move toward international cooperation among tax authorities is gathering its forces to do battle. This invaluable book shows how the globalization of trade, the digitization of the economy, tax competition between sovereign states, the erosion of the tax base, and the transfer of pro ts have all revealed the weaknesses of a traditional tax system that has reached its limits, and how numerous states and groups of states have joined efforts in creating a new international tax system designed to restore fairness and stability in the levying of taxes worldwide. Stemming from a 2016 conference initiated by the Canadian non-pro t organization TaxCOOP, convened by the World Bank and bringing together well-known taxation experts from prominent international organizations, the book presents outstanding contributions highlighting the impacts of tax competition and viable solutions. Among the issues and topics covered are the following: – electronic commerce and electronic money; – transfer pricing; – derivatives and hedge funds; – protecting tax whistle-blowers; – offshore tax investigations; – possibility of an international tax court; – impact of tax competition on developing countries; – carbon pricing; – tobacco taxation; and – effective taxation of the ultra-wealthy and their nancial capital. The chapters include details of country experiences and results, in some cases analyzed by key protagonists themselves. Collectively, the contributions take a giant step toward reinforcing the power of sovereign states in sectors such as the environment, education, and health. As an authoritative guide to increasing the level of transparency and accountability of private and public economic actors and restoring citizens’ trust in the fairness of our global governance systems, this peerless volume will be warmly welcomed by tax lawyers, taxation authorities, and interested academics worldwide.
Download or read book OECD G20 Base Erosion and Profit Shifting Project Aligning Transfer Pricing Outcomes with Value Creation Actions 8 10 2015 Final Reports written by OECD and published by Org. for Economic Cooperation & Development. This book was released on 2015-10-19 with total page 186 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The report contains revisions to the OECD Transfer Pricing Guidelines to align transfer pricing outcomes with value creation. The revised guidance focuses on the following key areas: transfer pricing issues relating to transactions involving intangibles; contractual arrangements, including the contractual allocation of risks and corresponding profits, which are not supported by the activities actually carried out; the level of return to funding provided by a capital-rich MNE group member, where that return does not correspond to the level of activity undertaken by the funding company; and other high-risk areas. The report also sets out follow-up work to be carried out on the transactional profit split method which will lead to detailed guidance on the ways in which this method can appropriately be applied to further align transfer pricing outcomes with value creation.

This book was released on 2015-10-12 with total page 80 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Preferential regimes continue to be a key pressure area. Current concerns are primarily about preferential regimes which can be used for artificial profit shifting and about a lack of transparency in connection with certain rulings. The report sets out an agreed methodology to assess whether there is substantial activity. In the context of IP regimes such as patent boxes, agreement was reached on the nexus approach which uses expenditures as a proxy for substantial activity and ensures that taxpayers can only benefit from IP regimes where they engaged in research and development and incurred actual expenditures on such activities. The same principle can also be applied to other preferential regimes so that such regimes are found to require substantial activity where the taxpayer undertook the core income generating activities. In the area of transparency, a framework has been agreed for the compulsory spontaneous exchange of information on rulings that could give rise to BEPS concerns in the absence of such exchange. The results of the application of the existing factors applied by the FHTP, and the elaborated substantial activity and transparency factors, to a number of preferential regimes are included in this report.
