[...] The international standards of transparency and exchange of information are primarily contained in Article 26 of the OECD Model Tax Convention and the 2002 Model Agreement on Exchange of Information on Tax Matters. [...] The convention establishes the respective rights to tax of the State of source and of the State of residence for both income and capital. [...] The Global Forum on Transparency and Exchange of Information for Tax Purposes Since 2000, the Global Forum on Transparency and Exchange of Information for Tax Purposes (the Global Forum) has been the multilateral framework within which work in the area of tax transparency has been carried out by both OECD and non-OECD economies.

Book Synopsis The Legacy of the OECD's Harmful Tax Practices Initiative by : Justin Dabner
Download or read book The Legacy of the OECD's Harmful Tax Practices Initiative written by Justin Dabner and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 28 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1998, the OECD issued a report announcing an initiative to eradicate harmful tax practices world wide. Non-OECD states with preferential tax regimes were labelled tax havens and the focus of the report soon became these countries.The tax havens' primary response has been to point to the absence of a level playing field. As a result, the OECD's initiative evolved to focus on the need for tax regime transparency and international information exchange agreements.This placed the initiative in accord with other international initiatives directed to similar ends. Faced with overwhelming international pressure, all but five of the tax havens have committed to co-operate. The critical issue now is as to how the principles of transparency and information exchange will be embraced.This paper argues that a proper balance between the rights of nations and of taxpayers must be maintained. This proposition is illustrated by reference to the relationship between Australia and the tax haven Vanuatu. A way forward for these two countries that acknowledges the commercial value of the information sought by Australia and contains protections for taxpayers is outlined. This proposal could serve as a blueprint for the implementation of tax havens' commitments to the OECD.
Book Synopsis Havens in a Storm by : J. C. Sharman
Download or read book Havens in a Storm written by J. C. Sharman and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 2018-10-22 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Small states have learned in recent decades that capital accumulates where taxes are low; as a result, tax havens have increasingly competed for the attention of international investors with tax and regulatory concessions. Economically powerful countries including France, Britain, Japan, and the United States, however, wished to stanch the offshore flow of domestic taxable capital. Since 1998 the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) has attempted to impose common tax regulations on more than three dozen small states. In a fascinating book based on fieldwork and interviews in twenty-two countries in the Caribbean, North America, Europe, and islands in the Pacific and Indian Oceans, J. C. Sharman shows how the struggle was decided in favor of the tax havens, which eventually avoided common regulation. No other book on tax havens is based on such extensive fieldwork, and no other author has had access to so many of the key decision makers who played roles in the conflict between onshore and offshore Sharman suggests that microstates succeeded in their struggle with great powers because of their astute deployment of reputation and effective rhetorical self-positioning. In effect, they persuaded a transnational audience that the OECD was being untrue to its own values by engaging in a hypocritical, bullying exercise inimical to free competition.

Book Synopsis Global Tax Fairness by : Thomas Pogge
Download or read book Global Tax Fairness written by Thomas Pogge and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2016-02-04 with total page 383 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book addresses sixteen different reform proposals that are urgently needed to correct the fault lines in the international tax system as it exists today, and which deprive both developing and developed countries of critical tax resources. It offers clear and concrete ideas on how the reforms can be achieved and why they are important for a more just and equitable global system to prevail. The key to reducing the tax gap and consequent human rights deficit in poor countries is global financial transparency. Such transparency is essential to curbing illicit financial flows that drain less developed countries of capital and tax revenues, and are an impediment to sustainable development. A major break-through for financial transparency is now within reach. The policy reforms outlined in this book not only advance tax justice but also protect human rights by curtailing illegal activity and making available more resources for development. While the reforms are realistic they require both political and an informed and engaged civil society that can put pressure on governments and policy makers to act.

Book Synopsis Information Exchange and Tax Haven Investment in OECD Securities Markets by : Jost H. Heckemeyer
Download or read book Information Exchange and Tax Haven Investment in OECD Securities Markets written by Jost H. Heckemeyer and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 43 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Curtailing tax evasion is high on the international policy agenda. Still, there is only little empirical evidence about the effects of offshore tax evasion in cross-border portfolio investment and its responsiveness to changes in enforcement. Exploiting rich IMF data on bilateral investments in OECD securities markets, we show that outbound portfolio investment (FPI) from tax haven countries is significantly more responsive to information exchange than outbound FPI from non-havens. This is strong evidence for a tax evasion component in tax haven investment in OECD securities markets. Furthermore, we are able to show that tax havens' attempts to undermine the OECD transparency initiative pay off. Tax havens that enter into information exchange with other tax havens rather than with non-haven partner countries become more attractive pass-through destinations for tax evaders.
Book Synopsis Tax Sovereignty in the BEPS Era by : Sergio André Rocha
Download or read book Tax Sovereignty in the BEPS Era written by Sergio André Rocha and published by Kluwer Law International B.V.. This book was released on 2016-04-24 with total page 338 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The power of a country to freely design its tax system is generally understood to be an integral feature of sovereignty. However, as an inevitable result of globalization and income mobility, one country’s exercise of tax sovereignty often overlaps, interferes with, or even impedes that of another. In this collection of essays, internationally respected practitioners and academics reveal how the OECD’s Base Erosion and Pro t Shifting (BEPS) initiative, although a major step in the right direction, is insuf cient to resolve the tax sovereignty paradox. Each contribution deals with different facets of a single topic: How tax sovereignty is shaped in a post ,BEPS world. The contributors provide in ,depth analysis of such relevant issues as the following: hy multilateral cooperation and soft law consensus are the preferred solutions to a loss of autonomy over national tax policy; – how digital commerce has upended traditional notions of source and residence; – why residence and source continue to be the two essential building blocks of tax sovereignty and the backbone of the international tax system; – how developing countries can take advantage of the new international tax architecture to ensure that their voices are truly shaping the standards; and – transfer pricing reform. Collectively, the authors provide an authoritative commentary on the necessary preconditions for exercising the power to tax in today’s world. Their perspectives and recommendations will prove of great value to all policymakers, legislators, practitioners, and academics in the international taxation arena.
Book Synopsis The Dynamics of Global Economic Governance by : Richard Eccleston
Download or read book The Dynamics of Global Economic Governance written by Richard Eccleston and published by Edward Elgar Publishing. This book was released on 2013-01-01 with total page 201 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ÔThis book is an exceptionally interesting and well-researched analysis of one of the most important reforms in global governance that have been put into place in the wake of the global financial crisis that began in 2007. Eccleston insightfully draws on and contributes to theories of global governance, explaining the surprisingly innovative and successful aspects of the global arrangements for combating tax evasion while also highlighting their deficiencies.Õ Ð Tony Porter, McMaster University, Canada ÔIn the atmosphere of fiscal emergency after the financial crisis, international tax policy has become a critical concern. There is no better guide to inter-linked political and economic challenges that result than Richard EcclestonÕs new book, The Dynamics of Global Economic Governance. Eccleston provides a detailed and authoritative guide to global tax governance after the financial crisis, and makes a highly persuasive case that the current international tax regime is fundamentally flawed in its efforts to combat tax evasion.Õ Ð Jason Sharman, Griffith University, Australia The financial crisis that engulfed global markets in 2008 created an acute need for improved international economic cooperation. Despite the G20Õs prominent coordination role, the regulatory response to the crisis has varied considerably across governance arenas. This book focuses on international taxation and examines how the financial crisis prompted renewed attempts to enhance international tax transparency and confront tax havens. It highlights the complexity of international regime change and the significance of national and financial interests, international organizations, domestic politics and the emerging G20 leaders forum in this process. This timely book highlights the challenges in post-financial crisis global economic governance, information that will strongly appeal to scholars and graduate students in the fields of political science, international political economy, global governance, international taxation and law. Stakeholders in the international tax regime including diplomats and tax administrators, international organizations, NGO and business representatives will also find plenty of enriching information in this study.
Book Synopsis Issues in International Taxation International Tax Avoidance and Evasion Four Related Studies by : OECD

This book was released on 1987-04-30 with total page 108 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first report outlines the reasons why international tax avoidance and evasion through the use of tax havens is a concern to the tax authorities of OECD Member countries and examines measures introduced to combat such use. The second report sets out the problems posed for tax administrations by the fact that their resident taxpayers make use of base companies (generally subsidiary companies) in tax havens to shelter there income derived from source countries (which may in some cases be the residence country itself) and in that way to escape tax normally payable to the country of residence. The third report deals with the problems created for tax authorities in source countries by the mechanism of "treaty shopping". The final report deals with taxation and the abuse of bank secrecy.
