The end of the (tax) world as we know it? OECD delivers final BEPS recommendations

The OECD today delivered the second part of its recommendations to reform international tax rules by tackling base erosion and profit shifting (BEPS). While unanimity across all points discussed was impossible, a higher level of agreement - either in the form of consensus or agreement on 'minimum standards' - has been achieved than many expected, though this has not stopped non-governmental organisations (NGOs) from criticising the package as "a sticking-plaster approach".
