Full coverage: Multinationals

A new OECD proposal on digital taxation illustrates how Pascal Saint-Amans, a soft-spoken French official, is attempting to radically restructure how, and where, multinationals are taxed. Ian Kehoe asks him how Ireland will fare in the new global carve-up.

In this, the first of a new series of innovation, Ross Hunt argues that Ireland merely assists multinationals to solve problems, rather than solving them ourselves. Overtime, he believes this will reduce our wealth rather than increasing it.
