Tax Evasion Maze navigates the complex world of international tax avoidance, revealing how corporations and wealthy individuals minimize their tax burdens, impacting economic equality and public services. The book investigates mechanisms like tax havens and shell corporations, crucial for understanding how profits are shifted to low-tax jurisdictions, thereby exacerbating wealth inequality. By using meticulously compiled data from international investigations, the book highlights the flaws in the current international tax system that incentivize large-scale tax avoidance.
The book begins by defining terms such as transfer pricing and profit shifting, then explores case studies of corporate tax avoidance strategies, tracing funds through complex structures. It quantifies the impact on national economies and explores potential solutions, including international tax cooperation and regulatory reform.
This exploration makes complex financial instruments accessible, avoiding jargon and promoting a better understanding of tax avoidance schemes for policymakers, financial professionals, and concerned citizens.
