The global minimum tax is a bold attempt to curb tax avoidance and international tax competition and has been a reality since January 2024. So far, however, it has only been legally implemented in the EU. In the latest episode of the ZEW podcast, Sophia Wickel and Stefan Weck from ZEW’s “Corporate Taxation and Public Finance” Unit, and Professor Christoph Spengel, Chair of Business Administration and Taxation at the University of Mannheim and Research Associate at ZEW, discuss the practical implications of the global minimum tax. They also debate with podcast host Bastian Thüne whether or not its introduction is beneficial for Germany.
