OECD started in 2013 a large international project to prevent Base Erosion and Profit Shifting (BEPS) BEPS-package (http://www.oecd.org/tax/beps/) was finalized in 2015 (autumn). The Inclusive Framework on BEPS has more than 100 countries. It covers considerably larger area than OECD. Especially developing economies and countries have been invited to participate in the Inclusive Framework on BEPS on an equal footing. Revenue losses from BEPS are conservatively estimated at USD 100-240 billion annually or anywhere from 4-10% of global corporate income tax (CIT) revenues. Given developing countries? greater reliance on CIT revenues as a percentage of tax revenue the impact of BEPS on these countries is particularly significantIn 2017?2020 impact objective is enhanced Domestic Resource Mobilization for developing countries.
