The OECD has listed the 30 plus tax havens around the world and that seems to be that. There were threats to do this and that but the US and UK and I guess others have seen it in their interests to keep the tax havens "in business" The UK govt. has even sent advisors to small countries in the Caribbean advising them how to become tax havens and attract headquarters of large multinational firms. Surprising but true. arthur _______________________________________________ Futurework mailing list [email protected] http://fes.uwaterloo.ca/mailman/listinfo/futurework
