At the request of the G20, in July 2013, the OECD released an Action Plan on Base Erosion and Profit Shifting (BEPS) to address global concerns regarding the taxation of cross-broader activities and other challenges to the international tax framework. The work on BEPS is being carried out within the context of the OECD/G20 BEPS Project, to which all non-OECD G20 countries participate as Associates, on an equal footing with OECD countries. The outcomes of the OECD/G20 BEPS Project are expected by 2015, with the first outputs expected for September 2014.  The OECD is seeking the views of all countries in carrying out this work.

 

 This event will provide a unique opportunity for high-level tax officials to discuss the content of the BEPS Action Plan. The aim is to discuss country perspectives on both the challenges and potential solutions in relation to BEPS. This high level dialogue is a first key step in the engagement process, which will continue through the Global Forum on Transfer Pricing in March 2014 and the Global Forum on Tax Treaties in September 2014. 

 

 Target audience:High level officials of Tax Administrations and policymakers in Ministries of Finance.
