USA/Global: Taxing the Tech Giants

It’s not often that you can celebrate an outright, global triumph for the advocacy efforts of a movement. Today, for tax justice, is one of those days. The high level UN panel report launched today, by a group of heads of state and ministers from around the world, may come to be seen as a pivotal moment in the world’s fight against illicit finance and tax abuse. If their envisaged changes follow, the $427 billion that we conservatively estimate to be lost in tax revenue each year may finally be curbed.

A Long Tale of Blood, Oil and Water The Gulf of Guinea with its 11 countries eight of which have proven oil reserves and five of which are major fuel producers, was labelled as the world s most dangerous maritime zone in 2020.
