Opinion: November 27, 2021. How Would a Global Corporate Tax Work?

A global tax rate is an agreement between nations that will set up a flat fee for taxing corporate profit all over the world (signing nations). So far about 140 countries are agreeing to this proposal.

The idea behind this is to reduce (or eliminate) the attractiveness of tax havens all over the world. For example. If a global tax rate is set up at 15% and a company from country A opens a subsidiary in country B where the corporate tax rate is 12%, country A will be able to collect the 3% difference.

In my opinion, this is an overreach from governments which will reduce the interest of companies opening businesses in countries which are more tax advantaged. Countries like country B will have less companies opening in their territory and will end up losing that revenue. Tax collection only grows government bureaucracies and reduce the efficiency of businesses.

A very nice thing to say is that even though the tax collection benefits a particular group, it destroys the interest of the traders.

Tax collection is a one side game. It favour some and affect some. Thanks for sharing and have a wonderful day

Critical review bro! Indeed, talking about tax issues seems endless in all countries of the world, I guess. I personally am very sick of seeing the tax mafia sucking the blood of its people just for the sake of one-sided interests.
