Global Minimum Corporate Tax, moderated by, Nana Ama Sarfo, Tax Notes International; Daniel Bunn, Tax Foundation; Steven Dean, Brooklyn Law School; Mark Strimber, RSM US LLP
As of July 1, 2021, 130 countries have agreed to a proposed Global Minimum Corporate Tax (GMCT). Successful implementation of such a standard will close loopholes that have allowed large multinational companies to avoid paying taxes even in countries in which they do substantial business. According to some estimates, a GMCT would help governments recover between 100-240 billion dollars annually in taxes that companies have avoided paying through complicated tax avoidance schemes. While a final practical set of rules is still under negotiation, the framework of an agreement is in place.
Join the Robert Zicklin Center for Corporate Integrity virtually as we welcome a panel of experts who will discuss the recent progress that has been made toward a GMCT, the prospects for its success, and the implications it will have on economies worldwide.
