摘要:

The last three decades has witnessed two important trends: (a) the rise in intangible capital as a share of total capital, and (b) the increase in cross-country ownership of assets (financial globalization). We study the significance of these two trends for international tax competition within a two-country model, where governments choose profit and income tax rates without committing to future policies and without international coordination. The quantitative analysis reveals that the higher share of intangible capital has led to lower profit tax rates, while the increased cross-country ownership of assets has resulted in higher taxation of profits. The first effect was larger than the second and the combined effects resulted in a 6% reduction in profit tax rate and 0.55% gains in welfare when we account for the transition.
