Yet at the same time there is growing evidence that transnational corporations (TNCs); are paying less and less in terms of tax. The developing countries in particular have suffered from this —it has been estimated that developing country governments lose at least US$35 billion a year of revenue through tax avoidance practices. This paper presents empirical evidence and a proposal for applying a unitary tax system on the profits of TNCs. Such a system would eliminate one of the most powerful mechanisms at the disposal of TNCs for illegally avoiding tax payments—transfer pricing. The paper concludes by arguing that a proposal for a unitary tax system on a worldwide basis may be sufficient to unblock the negotiations on a multilateral investment code. 2014-01-02T18:43:45Z 2014-01-02T18:43:45Z 2004-04 Texto Sección o Parte de un Documento http://hdl.handle.net/11362/11008 LC/G.2220-P en CEPAL Review CEPAL Review 82 application/pdf |
