ASC Seminar - The Impact of Tax Havens on Development

Prof Ronen Palan, City University, London. Most developing countries do not possess sophisticated tax systems. Typically, they are often characterized by large under-taxed informal economies, and in some of the worst cases, economies that not taxed at all. Yet, if tax havens have played a significant role in shaping the economies of developed countries, arguably, they play an even greater role in shaping the lives of those who live in developing countries.
