TEI & Thomson Reuters Present: The OECD Consultation on the Digitalization of the Economy, Reallocation of Taxing Rights, and a Potential Global Minimum Tax Regime

| CPE Credits: | 2 credits |
Earlier this year the OECD issued a public consultation document entitled “Addressing the Tax Challenges of the Digitalization of the Economy.” While the consultation grew out of Action 1 of the OECD’s Base Erosion and Profit Shifting (BEPS) project, which was focused on international tax issues presented by certain highly digitalized business models, the consultation document has a far broader scope. The document represents the possibility of an unprecedented reallocation of taxing rights from residence to source (or “market”) countries. Further, and even more radically, the consultation document sets forth a proposal for a global anti-base erosion approach that may mirror the new U.S. global intangible low-taxed income (GILTI) and base erosion and anti-abuse tax (BEAT) regimes. This webinar will address the OECD’s consultation document and survey the shape of, and consequences for, the future of the international tax consensus in light of the document’s proposals.
