SUMMARY:Research Colloquium on Global Tax Governance - Season 4
DESCRIPTION:The research colloquium on global tax governance co-organised by GLOBTAXGOV and the ICTD goes into its fourth season! We are inviting new submissions of abstracts to discuss early-stage original research on global tax governance from various perspectives. \nThe topic\nOver the last decade\, international and regional organisations\, in addition to myriad non-state actors\, have intensified their work on a quintessential issue of state sovereignty: taxation. On the one hand this can be attributed to the increasing internationalisation of tax policy issues\, fostered by an increasing economic integration and competition for capital by countries\, as well as to the digitalisation of business models – a situation that has led states to pursue more cooperation. On the other hand\, international organisations have developed considerable agency on their own and sought to broaden the scope of their mandates\, proposing deeper\, more sovereignty-constraining cooperation\, and encouraging more and more countries to join these reform efforts. \nWhile some scholars principally focus on the international level to understand tax policy\, others remain more cautious and still see a more important role for nation states and the domestic factors that influence their policy and administration. Clearly observable tensions have also led to normative discussions about what the scope of global tax governance should be and how international institutions should be designed. Global tax governance is increasingly researched in different scholarly disciplines such as law\, sociology\, political science\, and economics. Yet\, many open questions remain\, and interdisciplinarity can be harnessed more systematically. \nFormat\nAs a participant\, you may discuss\, for example: research ideas that need to be transformed into concrete projects; data you collected but that you still need to be make sense of; research findings you wish to connect to more general debates in academia and society; arguments that you would like to refine through exposure to different academic disciplines. \nWe do not seek submissions of papers that are already very polished. Participation is open to both junior and senior scholars writing about global tax governance from any disciplinary perspective. We welcome both empirical and theoretical research\, papers that critically discuss policies and arrangements\, or proposals of new solutions. \nTwo presentation formats are possible: \n\nA full paper presentation lasts 20 minutes. Participants need to submit a paper 14 days before the session and 1-2 discussants will be invited to prepare specific comments.\nA flash presentation lasts 8 minutes. No full paper needs to be submitted beforehand.\n\nSession dates and program (potentially subject to change)\nWednesday\, 28 September 2022\, 14:30 CEST / 13:30 BST / 12:30 UTC \nFull paper: Margarita Lopez Forero\, “how multinational enterprises’ (MNEs) presence in tax havens translates into a strong decline in firms’ total wage bill in France” \nDiscussants: Adrienne Lees\, Institute of Development Studies and Suranjali Tandon from the National Institute of Public Finance and Policy in India \nFlash presentation 1: King Carl Tornam Duho\, “Transfer Pricing\, Earnings Management and Corporate  Governance amongst Multinationals: Evidence from Ghana” \nFlash presentation 2: Dmitry Erokhin\, “The effect of the termination of a tax treaty” \n\nWednesday\, 2 November 2022\, 14:30 CET / 13:30 GMT / 13:30 UTC \nFlash presentation 1:  Leyla Ates\, “the role of domestic courts in addressing the global challenge of BEPS” \nFlash presentation 2: Augustin Kafando\, “Effectiveness of investment tax incentives in Burkina Faso: an ex ante evaluation” \nWednesday\, 14 December 2022\, 14:30 CET / 13:30 GMT / 13:30 UTC \nFull paper: Manon François\, “to which extent the complexity of multinationals’ ownership structure serves tax avoidance” \nFlash presentation 1: Diederik Stadig\, “why the Netherlands became a tax haven and Denmark did not” \nFlash presentation 2: Tyler Ditmore\, “The Unintended Dangers of Tax Cooperation: How Countries Use the Common Reporting Standard” \nWednesday\, 25 January 2023\, 14:30 CET/ 13:30 GMT /13:30 UTC \nFull paper: Manchuna Shanmuganathan\, “Inclusive Global Tax Governance in Digital Era” \nFlash presentation 1: Vita Apriliasari\, “Inter-nation equity in the international taxation reform: a critical review of Two-Pillar Solution” \nFlash presentation 2: Francis Kairu\, “why countries like Nigeria despite having the biggest population in Africa and having known natural resources like oil and gas continue collecting less revenue compared to other countries like Kenya” \nVenue: ZOOM\nDuration: 1.5 hours \n

SUMMARY:More transparency for fairer taxes - finding the money to close the gap in A green and social Europe is possible with the right tax fix
DESCRIPTION:AGENDA \n9:00-9:30 Registrations and morning coffee \n9:30-9:40 Introductory words by Philippe Lamberts\, Co-Chair of the Greens/EFA \n9:40-9:50 Keynote speech (tbc) \n9:50-10:50 The need for a tax shift – lower incomes need to stop bearing the brunt \nIn the current EU\, workers pay a high price for an imbalanced tax system. A system still favouring large companies\, accumulated wealth\, financial speculation and pollution\, while work and livelihoods suffer a higher tax burden to bridge the difference. How to stop this inequality? What should the EU do? \nModerated by Elodie Lamer – Correspondent at TaxNotes \nSpeakers:  \n\nSusana Ruiz – Tax Policy Lead at Oxfam\nRuud de Moij – Assistant Director of Fiscal Affairs at the IMF\nRasmus Andresen – Greens/EFA MEP\nBenjamin Angel – Director of Direct Taxation at the European Commission (tbc)\n\n———————-\n10:50-11:10 Coffee break\n———————- \n11:10-12:10 Polluters must pay – greening the economy \nThe transition out of fossil fuels to energy efficiency and renewable energy has never been as important and crucial as now. Unfortunately\, the current state of play in the EU is grim. How can the tax system help stop climate change? What would the EU need to bring to the table? \nModerator (tbc) \nSpeakers:  \n\nFemke Groothuis – President of Ex’Tax\nTatiana Falcao PhD – International and Environmental Tax Expert\nBas Eickhout – Greens/EFA MEP\nKurt Van Dender – Head of the Tax and Environment Unit at the OECD\n\n———————- \n12:15-13:15 More transparency for fairer taxes – finding the money to close the gap \nEven if we recently achieved public country-by-country reporting\, there is a lot of homework to do in terms of transparency. With little to no data available about who owns what and where\, it is increasingly hard to tax billionaires and oligarchs and have real justice. How can the EU achieve real transparency and guarantee that those who have the most don’t skip the rules? \nModerator (tbc) \nSpeakers: \n\nOlivier Boutellis Taft – CEO of Accountancy Europe\nIrma Mosquera Valderrama PhD – Professor of Tax Governance at Universiteit Leiden\nErnest Urtasun – Greens/EFA MEP\nMona Barake – Postdoctoral scholar at the EU Tax Observatory\n\n13:15-13:30 Conclusion and presentation of the Greens/EFA Tax Fix Action Plan – Kira Marie Peter-Hansen and Claude Gruffat Greens/EFA MEPs \n———————-\n13:30-14:30 Networking lunch\n———————-
