The global tax system is broken and developing countries are paying dearly as a result. Our expert panelists discussed: Why is the global economy so vulnerable to corporate tax evasion? What is being done to address international tax avoidance? What efforts are developing country governments making? What more needs to be done, and whose responsibility is it?

  • Professor Michael Devereux, Director of the Oxford University Centre of Business Taxation, Professor of Business Taxation, Said Business School, University of Oxford
