Abstract

Even though financial markets today show a high degree of integration, the world capital market is still far from the textbook story of high capital mobility. The purpose of this paper is to highlight key source of market failure in the contest of international capital flows and to provide guidelines for efficient tax structure in the presence of capital market imperfections.
