This book discusses the practical issues faced by the banks, financial institutions, companies engaging in leasing as a form of asset financing, and their tax advisers. The book elaborately deals with the divergent tax treatment in the five most important leasing jurisdictions (ie, US, Japan, Germany, UK and Netherlands) in respect of transaction characterization, depreciation, income-recognition and anti-avoidance rules, as well as divergence in the relevant bilateral tax treaty provisions. Further, the book investigates how the parties to a cross-border leasing transaction may obtain tax advantages due to such divergent tax treatments, and whether and to what extent the general or specific anti-avoidance rules in the jurisdictions may neutralize the tax arbitrage opportunities. Finally, it examines how the framework of the EC Treaty may be relevant for cross-border leasing transactions between the EC Member States.

The study conducted by the Centre of European Economic Research (ZEW), the University of Mannheim and Ernst & Young contributes to the ongoing evaluation of the proposal for a Draft Council Directive on a Common Consolidated Corporate Tax Base (CC(C)TB) released by the European Commission on March 16, 2011. For the first time, details on the determination of taxable income under the proposed Council Directive are compared to prevailing corporate tax accounting regulations in all 27 Member States, Switzerland and the US. The study presents evidence on the scope of differences and similarities between national tax accounting regulations and the Directive’s treatment in a complete, yet concise form. Based on this comprehensive comparison, it goes on to discuss remaining open questions and adjustments needed if the Directive is to be implemented in national tax law. Readers seeking a basis for taking an active part in the public debate will find a valuable source of information and a first impression of how the proposed CC(C)TB would affect corporate tax burdens in the European Union.

An in-depth analysis of various aspects of CFC legislation This volume provides an in-depth analysis of various aspects of the topic “Concept and Implementation of CFC legislation”. The volume is divided into four parts. The first part comprises chapters discussing the historical background, policy considerations, and different CFC approaches that have been implemented in domestic legislation. While the chapters included in the second part focus on the recommendation for the effective design of CFC rules found in BEPS Action 3, the chapters encompassed in the third part analyse the implementation of these criteria in Articles 7 and 8 of the ATAD and the compatibility of these provisions with EU primary law. Finally, the chapters encompassed in part four deal with selected issues related to CFC rules, including the compatibility of CFC legislation and tax treaties, the relationship between these rules and general anti-abuse rules, the implications of the proposed CCCTB Directive on CFC rules, alternative approaches to CFC legislation (such as the Global Anti-Base Erosion proposal of the OECD/G20), the interrelationship between CFC rules and transfer pricing legislation, and the balance between effective CFC rules and compliance burdens.

Inspired by a postgraduate course the authors have jointly taught at the University of Cambridge since 2001, Peter Harris and David Oliver use their divergent backgrounds (academia and tax practice) to build a conceptual framework that not only makes the tax treatment of complex commercial transactions understandable and accessible, but also challenges the current orthodoxy of international tax norms. Designed specifically for postgraduate students and junior practitioners, it challenges the reader to think about tax issues conceptually and holistically, while illustrating the structure with practical examples. Senior tax practitioners and academics will also find it useful as a means of refreshing their understanding of the basics and the conceptual framework will challenge them to think more deeply about tax issues.
