2:07 am
a minimum 15 percent corporate tax rate in nearly every country, if full short of the 21 percent that us president joe biden wanted. the deal aims to discourage multinational corporations from stashing profits in countries where they pay little or no taxes. the organization for economic cooperation and development says the increase tax revenue amounts to around a $150000000000.00 globally. what will happen here is that developing economists will see significant increases in the revenue own own source revenue that would be able to generate on the back of those reforms. and in the end that people can say in the right should have been higher. this should have been different, you know, 80 percent of something is always better than the percent of nothing. and you know, in the end, people can say it's not, it's not good enough. but sometimes we should never let the perfect biddy enemy of the good me think it is a very good performance, the historic reform. and it will deliver significant benefits that 2 countries
2:08 am
around the world, including any particular developing countries around the world. lauren's codley coffee is a professor of economics at boston university. he joins us from providence in rhode island, the g 20 or announcing this as a historic statement, but i'm not entirely sure that's true because it's still up for the individual countries to enact it. is that well, they do have to inactive, but let's assume it is the actors. i think it's in the us interest. so i think that most countries will and acted following us lead. if you take your country like gary a that might be let's just just suppose it's not the case, but just suppose it, well gary had a tax of corporate profit to 0. so u. s. companies operating in bulgaria could be earning profits and 0. ready now the u. s. we have the right to tax that it fits those profits that are earned abroad and gary, 15 present. now the bulgarians would say, well,
2:09 am
doesn't make any sense for us to have a tax rate 0. we're going to raise it to 15 percent. so now we'll get the revenue. and on this, you know, we'll get some extra revenue. and furthermore, we know that we're not competing with other countries that have a 0 percent corporate tax rate. so is raised to the bottom will be ended. so i think what your former common a commentator just said is correct, that this will actually be good for low tax rate havens because they'll all be able to collectively raise their tax rate up to the 15 percent minimum and not have to compete with each other. ready in his race to the bottom. so you know, he's a good for the big country is not necessarily because of the, the tax rate in the u. s. is still going to be more like 20 you know, depending on the buying reforms here might be up to 525 percent. so. ready
2:10 am
countries a corporation is doing business with, gary is not going to tax reason to shift back to the u. s. when they have to pay a higher tax for making income in the, in the us. right. but so it is a, it is a unique and important reform. no question. so does this mean the end of tax havens it, it kind of uniforms, a unify as the tax havens in one. and this can be less of incentive for companies to move outside of let's say the u. s. or major or higher tax regions to a place like will gary in my, in my hypothetical. but it doesn't mean that the tax havens will all lose. i mean, we have all these countries have signed on, including tax savings. so they must see some benefits. and one of the benefit is that they're not competing with each other. if you get my drift in and you're also going to be able to get more revenues, they're still going to be lower. tax is still going to be an incentive to operate.
2:11 am
there are just won't be as big as it was. so of them, it's an end, it's a to me nation of tax havens, but there is some advantage of tax savings on the revenue side. let's take your exalted, oh, sorry lawrence carol. good was just saying this is another aspect of this global agreement, which is a kind of like a, a sales tax. it's if you look at it carefully, it's levied on the biggest corporations in world like an amazon. so if you're doing a lot of sales in their country like of india and you're paying your taxes in the u . s. in india would have, if you're making a lot of profits above your, if your profits exceed 10 percent of revenues, that excess profits, profits in excess of 10 percent revenues. kimmie taxed by india in a complicated formula based on india's own corporate tax rate and the share of its world wide amazon sales. the share of the sales of amazon worldwide that are
2:12 am
occurring in india. so it, it becomes, i go up attacks that amazon can levy on, on sales by, sorry, the india can levy on sales by amazon in india at a accomplish rate formula and a rate that's kind of complicated depending on these components. so it's an interesting, an extra tax, it will be kind of like a c global sales tax on amazon at rates are that are different depending on each country. a lawrence, he do son, cautiously optimistic. is that your assessment of this you'll, you'll optimistic yeah, i think a company that i think is a race of the bottom problem of operating in countries. it have very low taxes to attract capital. that's been a problem for the big countries. and then the small, the tax havens are competing with each other. and so they're not getting much
2:13 am
revenue. and so this is, i think, a win win. in general, it's not my ideal tax reform to tell you the truth, but it's, i think, better than what we have. and um, you know, amazon should be paying taxes to all the countries that it's operating in. and you know, and that, that's just amazon, just one example, one of his major corporations. lauren's hopefully called thank you very much. feel thoughts my pleasure. thank you again a so that aiden's international airport security says at least 5 people in been killed and 30 injured, falling, a blast in southern yemen. a cobham attack at the epo exploited near a security checkpoint close to an apple hotel rebels from if you have his tea gray region say they're now in full control of the strategic town of bessie in the neighboring m r a region. now the government is contesting that claim by the t p. ls fighting has moved into more and far regions off the rebels took control of
2:14 am
t great in recent months. the conflict has now been going on with the you. william davis, son is the senior ethiopia analyst at the international crisis group. he explains why taking control of dessie would be significant. i think it's important as it opens up the routes to and i just have about is another major sort of obstacle. so it's a great forces and it's also a large and significant hara. and it also allows to see great forces, easy a passage to the east, and perhaps to take control of the booty road, the main trade route. so it's important and those are special. so a large psychological below if the great force is doing the take control of it and i think, you know, they have a decent amount of control, but they're still fighting ongoing and, but it is part of the steady games on the battlefield for the 2 great forces in july, we do not know whether they will face stiffer resistance on the other fronts in
2:15 am
northwest around gone and these types of areas. but it does look like that too great for to have a significant military ascendancy where that actually takes us in terms of the politics of the situation. i mean, of course, a whole other question yesterday, quite a significant but a further call to the people. they're not just the military to defend against the great 40, so you can see the scared of the threat. but other than those types of options we have at how being used again, cities is great over recent weeks, but that's not likely to have any significant military effect. so at some point, the federal government may have to look at the option of negotiations as the pressure increases because of the 2 great advantage. still ahead 0. it has the longest coastline on the mediterranean nafrica. why is libby as fishing industry on the decline and hunger and poverty are on the rise margin tina as a country faces massive debt and soaring inflation. ah.
