Tax rates

The Biden administration and G-20 leaders are agreeing on the need for more revenue.

Global companies are benefiting from a prolonged decline in tax rates, new data from the OECD shows.

U.S. lawmakers are wary of passing any legislation until they have strong assurances that other countries will also change their laws.

Trusts aren’t just for the .01%, as some advisors sell mass affluent and high-net-worth clients on their tax benefits.

The Treasury secretary said U.S. companies are likely to provide crucial support in pushing lawmakers to back a global overhaul of corporate taxation.

The European Union said Monday it would postpone its push for a controversial digital levy to focus on a negotiation over a broader minimum global tax deal.

The Treasury Secretary hopes Congress can take up two key portions of a global tax agreement endorsed by Group of 20 finance ministers.

French Finance Minister Bruno Le Maire said he is confident the Group of 20 economies will back a deal on international tax, even as his country pushes for a higher minimum corporate rate.

The tax deal proposes a minimum corporate levy of at least 15%, and new rules for dividing up the tax revenues from the world’s largest companies — particularly U.S. tech giants.

The European Union’s plan to propose a new digital-services tax is unlikely to undermine global talks aimed at eliminating such levies, according to the head of the international group spearheading the discussions.
