“A couple of economists at a German think tank put together a ‘tax attractiveness’ ranking based on 16 different variables. The statutory tax rate is one of the measures, of course, but they also look at policies such as ‘the taxation of dividends and capital gains, withholding taxes, the existence of a group taxation regime, loss offet provision, the double tax treaty network, thin capitalization rules, and controlled foreign company (CFC) rules.’ The United Arab Emirates has one of the world’s most attractive corporate tax systems, notwithstanding having the highest corporate tax rate.
Unfortunately, the United States remains mired near the bottom.”
