Information

The article provides an overview over recent developments in the field of global tax cooperation, with a specific focus on the activities of the G20 under the German presidency. It argues that Germany has mostly limited itself to following-up on previous initiatives, rather than presenting new initiatives concerning the international tax governance structure. Progress has been achieved with regard to fighting tax avoidance by multinational corporations and exchanging information between tax authorities. However, these changes are insufficient to address spillovers arising from mismatches between public finance and public service delivery. Developing countries in particular are challenged to manage such spillovers under the current international tax system.
