Abstract

Explanations for the existence of tax havens are based on business secrecy, the ability of countries to facilitate transactions and deal with bureaucratic issues. The modalities of action are numerous, sometimes complex, always secret, using very specific legal arguments. Complex arrangements to increase the commercial competitiveness of multinational enterprises established in a territory are based on tax exemption and the establishment of subsidiaries in offshore locations. The creation of trusts or hedge funds facilitates the production of profits, the distribution of which will be personalised. There are various forms of tax exemption on the domiciliation of profits from international contracts in subsidiaries located in offshore locations. These practices lead to the impoverishment of the neighbour, while obtaining substantial profits.
