Summary

Losses are, although usually not desired, a fact of life. When suffered by companies that belong to a Multinational Enterprise (MNE), tax authorities are sometimes reluctant to accept the negative results. For this survey the IBFD has asked representatives from many countries to explain the way in which the tax legislation in their country deals with losses sustained by companies that belong to an MNE. Also the approach of the tax authorities in practice is often mentioned. Prof. Guglielmo Maisto has prepared a general analysis on the issue, on the basis of the OECD literature and by comparing the approaches taken in several countries
