Comparative international taxing systems

The School of Accounting scholars have conducted research based on Tax Information Exchange Agreements, addressing the challenges Australia faces, past, present and future. Their studies examine whether or not agreements that Australia has entered into with tax haven countries will prove a workable tool in the combat of tax evasion and avoidance. Research further examines the position of the ATO’s past attitudes towards evasion and avoidance, where the ATO has currently positioned itself with respect to these agreements and where the Australian Tax office is heading in the future.
