There can be no doubt that taxation in Europe is a complex issue. And while our association - representing private equity, venture capital, infrastructure and their investors - is a far cry from agreeing with the European Commission on everything related to taxation, there are areas of alignment. 📖 The Annual Report on Taxation recently published by European Commission's Directorate-General for Taxation and Customs Union, provides an indicator-based analysis of recent trends in EU tax systems, and identifies issues where tax policy, implementation or compliance could be improved. And Chapter 4 underlines the important and multi-faceted role tax policy has to play in supporting the competitiveness and prosperity of the EU. Furthermore, section 4.3.3 of the report - dealing with venture capital - recognises the sizable funding gap (mainly compared to the U.S.). We agree with the above, and touch on these points in our ‘Forward’ publication, containing our policy agenda for the next five years and beyond.
