CORPTAXand the EU TAX Observatory organized a joint research workshop on Multinationals: Tax Avoidance and Policy Responses.
The workshop focused on recent research in economics about how multinational corporations avoid tax by shifting profits to tax havens and what the policy responses to this tax avoidance are. We welcomed participation from researchers and other experts worldwide.

CORPTAX [https://corptax.cuni.cz/]
CORPTAX aims to establish how much multinational corporations pay in taxes, to what extent these taxes are paid in tax havens, and which factors drive these patterns. Ultimately, it aims to use theoretical, methodological and empirical innovations to transform the understanding of corporate taxation in a globalised world. The five-year-long project was launched in January 2021 and is funded by the Czech Science Foundation (21-05547M). CORPTAX is based at the Institute of Economic Studies, Faculty of Social Sciences, Charles University, Prague, Czechia.
