Irish Tax Schemes a Thing of the Past, Economist Says

from Talking Tax · host Bloomberg Tax

Four years after enactment of the 2017 tax law, the ramifications of Congress' tax code overhaul can be felt thousands of miles away in Ireland, as firms are no longer using the Emerald Isle to shift profits to low-tax jurisdictions. New research by a leading Irish economist shows that many U.S. multinationals are sending outbound payments from Ireland directly to the U.S., rather than to zero- or low-tax jurisdictions. On this episode of our weekly Talking Tax podcast, Seamus Coffey, a lecturer at University College Cork in Ireland talks about how companies are being encouraged to hold intellectual property in places where they have actual economic activity.
