'Cross–border direct tax issues of investment funds from the perspective of European law', António Calisto Pato, Issue 5, pp. 197–220 |
infoAntónio Calisto Pato, 'Cross–border direct tax issues of investment funds from the perspective of European law' (2008) 17 EC Tax Review, Issue 5, pp. 197–220 | | This article addresses the issue of discriminatory taxation of investments through investment funds. In particular, the article seeks to demonstrate that national legislations of Member States,while trying to grant neutral treatment to such investments as compared to direct investments, create sometimes obstacles to their internationalization. Furthermore, it tries to find solutions in the ECJ Case Law (with a special emphasis on Orange Smallcap) that might help mitigating or solving such obstacles. The author analyzes several scenarios where he tries to interact EC Law, double tax treaties and domestic law. To achieve that purpose, the author goes through several scenarios where investment funds, investors and investments are in different Member States or in third states and tries to detect restrictions or discriminations in both the source and home State, giving special emphasis to the comparability tests and to possible justifications.

'The Kredietbank Luxembourg and the Liechtenstein tax affairs: notes on the balance between the exchange of information between states and the protection of fundamental rights', T. A. van Kampen, L. J. de Rijke, Issue 5, pp. 221–232 |
infoT. A. van Kampen, L. J. de Rijke, 'The Kredietbank Luxembourg and the Liechtenstein tax affairs: notes on the balance between the exchange of information between states and the protection of fundamental rights' (2008) 17 EC Tax Review, Issue 5, pp. 221–232 | | In 2008, German authorities purchased information from a former employee of the Liechtenstein Global Trust Group (LGT Group), leading to numerous procedures for tax evasions in Germany and around the world. This incident in Lichtenstein bears striking similarities to an incident involving Kredietbank Luxembourg around 1996. These events raise various legal issues, including whether States may use stolen information as evidence in criminal and tax proceedings against their citizens. This article addresses this issue focusing on the relevant European law which provides valuable protection for these citizens and an important check on the conduct of States in obtaining evidence.

infoDaniel Deak, 'Outbound establishment revisited in Cartesio' (2008) 17 EC Tax Review, Issue 6, pp. 250–258 | | In the pending case with Cartesio, the national court raises the question whether the right of a business to transfer its seat to another Member State is covered by Community law even in the absence of the comprehensive harmonisation of national company laws. The Advocate General of this case concludes that the Republic of Hungary is not able to justify the absolute restriction on the right of establishment where a Hungarian–registered business is not allowed to transfer its seat to another Member State (whether remaining resident in Hungary or not), without being dissolved. It is problematic, however, that Cartesio is a ‘moving out’ case like Daily Mail (outbound establishment), and Centros and like cases are ‘moving in’ issues (inbound establishment).

infoTom O’Shea, 'Freedom of establishment tax jurisprudence: Avoir Fiscal re–visited' (2008) 17 EC Tax Review, Issue 6, pp. 259–275 | | This paper examines the tax jurisprudence of the ECJ relating to the freedom of establishment from the perspective of a ‘host’ Member State and from that of an ‘origin’ Member State. The Court’s Avoir Fiscal decision is revisited and reconsidered. The Court’s subsequent case law is analysed. The paper highlights that a ‘national treatment’ test is applied by the Court from both perspectives. The paper also demonstrates that the reasoning used in Avoir Fiscal, an establishment case, has been used analogously by the Court in relation to the other fundamental freedoms and that the Court’s application of the concept of comparability has been deeply influenced by this seminal and landmark judgment.
