On September 18, 2013, TEI submitted a letter to the OECD commenting on its Action Plan on Base Erosion and Profit Shifting. TEI's comments focused on the general principles of the current international tax system and the need for the OECD maintain those principles as it advances its Action Plan to combat perceived base erosion and profit shifting by multi-national enterprises.
The comments were prepared under the aegis of TEI's European Direct Tax Committee, whose chair is Alexander Kölbl of General Dynamics. Benjamin R. Shreck, TEI Tax Counsel, coordinated the preparation of TEI's letter.
