EFAMA replied to the OECD Pillar One – Amount A: Regulated Financial Services Exclusion public consultation. Aiming to change the views of those members of the OECD/IF that still maintain that asset managers should not be excluded from Amount A.

In this comment paper, EFAMA is taking the opportunity to:

With the release of this proposal, the Commission is replicating the OECD / BEPS Inclusive Framework (OECD) Pillar Two Global Anti-Base Erosion (GloBE) Model Rules that came live in December 2021 and addresses how Member States will implement them in a coherent and consistent way across the EU. The work of the Commission and the alignment with the work of the OECD / BEPS Inclusive Framework are to be welcomed.

EFAMA fully supports the Commission’s initiatives to fight tax avoidance and aggressive tax planning. The work of the technical teams that acknowledged our industry’s special requirements and the proposal of carve-out rules to protect investment structures and end-investors are, to a certain extent, to be welcomed.
