DOWNLOAD EBOOKThe increased mobility of economic activities has resulted in a sharp increase in tax competition between countries. Tax competition can have desirable consequences, such as more efficiency, but it can also have undesirable or harmful consequences, such as a race to the bottom. Since 1997 - the year of publication of the Code of Conduct -the fight against harmful tax competition is one of the main issues of the EU-tax policy. However, the discussion about harmful tax competition till now has been very misty. For a long time the discussion about harmful tax competition had a very political character. However, in course of time the relation between harmful tax competition and the state-aids provisions in the EC-Treaty was accentuated more and more. However, a more fundamental comparison between harmful tax competition and the state-aids provisions was missing. Furthermore, the relationship between the possible measures to combat harmful tax competition and the EC Treaty did not get a lot of attention. The aim of this publication is to bring more clearness and line in the ample discussion.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThis book discusses and evaluates the functioning, work and effectiveness of the diplomatic EU Code of Conduct Group in tackling harmful tax competition within the European Union and beyond. This Group, which celebrated its 20th anniversary on 9 March 2018, brings together representatives of the EU Member States, the European Commission and the Council of the European Union. As Member States still adhere to the Code Group's diplomatic character, implying confidentiality and closed meetings, its work is hidden by a veil of confidentiality. However, with the help of the EU Transparency Regulation and much persistence, more than 2,500 unpublished documents on the work of the Group were obtained by the author from the Council of the European Union and the European Commission. They provide a rare glimpse into the governance and work of the Group and, with that, to its effectiveness and the positions of individual Member States on many different tax regimes and tax avoidance practices. In this book, the content of these documents is made available to the reader. In addition to tax law, the book considers other relevant disciplines - such as EU law, economics and political science - to ensure a comprehensive approach. The book investigates the historical background and purpose of the political EU Code of Conduct on Business Taxation, its legal status, the governance and working methods of the Group and the geographical and substantive scope of the Code. It assesses the substance and effectiveness of the Group's decisions in respect of national preferential tax regimes (pseudo-case law) and in respect of coordinated tax policies on general competition-sensitive tax issues (pseudo-legislation). It also discusses the interaction between the Code (soft law) and hard law, notably the State aid and market distortion rules. It concludes with an outlook on the Group's future.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKInhaltsangabe:Abstract: This paper is intended to give an overview over Austrian advance rulings in an international context. In order to be able to outline the Austrian rulings practice and provisions that constitute a legal basis for advance rulings -- since in Austria rulings are not based upon one single law or provision but on many -- the term advance ruling will be defined as well and its meaning in international tax practice will be described. Moreover, this paper is intended to examine Austrian rulings measures in the light of the EU and OECD provisions against harmful tax competition, as well as under the state aid provisions of the EC Treaty. It is structured as follows: In the first part, the provisions of the EU (Code of Conduct of Business Taxation) and OECD (report on harmful tax competition) against harmful tax competition as well as the state aid provisions are described and the discussion, as to whether provisions against harmful tax competition are necessary at all, is outlined briefly. Then, international rulings practice is explained. Finally and essentially, Austrian rulings provisions are described in detail and assessed according to the criteria to identify harmful tax practices described in the provisions against harmful tax competition. This diploma thesis was written in the course of the EUCOTAX-program 2001/2002. EUCOTAX is a scientific cooperation between several European universities (i.e. European Universities Cooperating on Taxes). The intention of this program is to provide students and young academics with the experience of participating in an international tax conference. During their time of preparation, they are supported by senior experts. In the year 2002, the general topic was Tax Competition . This topic was split up into six sub-topics which were to be discussed in groups during this year's conference. These sub-topics were State aid , OECD report on harmful tax competition , Code of conduct of business taxation , Holding companies/exempt entities , CFC legislation , and Advance rulings . The conference was held from 4 April to 12 April 2002 in Tilburg, Netherlands.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKSovereign states commonly use tax incentives in order to attract investment and capital from abroad. Although it has been recognized for many years that the forms and features of these incentives can often have harmful effects, there has not until now been a clear, in depth, full scale study of what these effects are, how they come about, and how they can be minimised or avoided. This new book by Carlo Pinto performs the indispensable function of crystallising the extensive European and American literature in the field, locating his legal analysis in an EU law context that offers a framework within which tax lawyers in both government and business can find common ground. Tax Competition and EU Law builds an authoritative synthesis and proposal on its detailed discussions of all aspects of the theory and practice of tax competition, including the following: evidence of interjurisdictional tax competition in the U.S. experience and what the EU can learn from it; methodologies to study tax competition; economic evidence of tax competition in Europe; Member States' 'benchmark' tax systems; internal market distortion provisions of the EC Treaty (Articles 96 and 97); relevant EMU provisions; applicability of state aid provisions (EC Treaty Article 87) to direct tax measures; the EU 'Code of Conduct' Group; OECD countermeasures against harmful tax competition; and, CFC legislation. In the course of his presentation the author analyses various tax regimes and court cases from most EU Member States, outlining the issues and clarifications each brings to the central questions. His final proposal clearly demonstrates that the beneficial effects of tax competition ' decrease in direct tax burden, improved efficiency in public administration, enhancement of employment and development ' need not be fraught with the risk of fiscal degradation. This is a major milestone in the success of the projected harmonisation of taxation in the European Union.
