Ireland has shown a strong commitment to addressing child poverty and improving outcomes for children and young people through significant policy, legislative and organisational reforms over the past decade. This report is part of a joint project between the OECD, the European Commission and Ireland to strengthen policy and governance arrangements in Ireland. It provides guidance for the development of a Monitoring and Evaluation system for Ireland’s new policy framework for children and young people, Young Ireland. The report details the steps that should be considered when developing a robust results-based Monitoring and Evaluation system, building on international good practice examples and existing indicators.
This report examines the critical role of beneficial ownership transparency in combating tax evasion and illicit financial flows. With reference to the G20 mandates in this area, the report delves into the progress made in implementing the beneficial ownership requirements set out in the standards on transparency and exchange of information for tax purposes. Offering a global perspective, the report assesses the current state of implementation across jurisdictions, analyses the peer review results on effective implementation for Exchange of Information on Request, together with best practices for strengthening beneficial ownership transparency in the global tax landscape. The report also highlights capacity building activities to assist jurisdictions in building robust beneficial ownership frameworks and concludes with possible future directions. This report was prepared by the OECD and Global Forum on Transparency and Exchange of Information for Tax Purposes to inform the discussions at the July 2024 meeting of G20 Finance Ministers and Central Bank Governors, at the request of the G20 Brazilian Presidency.
This report provides an update on the work to implement the recently agreed OECD/G20 Crypto-Asset Reporting Framework (CARF), which extends the automatic exchange of information for tax purposes to the crypto-asset sector. The G20 asked the Global Forum on Transparency and the Exchange of Information for Tax Purposes (Global Forum) to “build on its commitment and monitoring processes to ensure the widespread implementation of the [CARF]”. The Global Forum has accordingly prepared this report to update the G20 on the progress of its work. This includes an update on the work of the Global Forum’s recently established dedicated CARF Group to develop the Global Forum’s commitment process in time for its delivery this year, to ensure that all relevant jurisdictions implement the CARF according to agreed timelines to deliver an effective CARF based on a level playing field. In this regard it is noted that 58 Global Forum members have already announced their intention to commence exchanges under the CARF in 2027. This report was prepared by the Global Forum to inform the discussions at the July 2024 meeting of G20 Finance Ministers and Central Bank Governors, at the request of the G20 Brazilian Presidency.
In July 2023, following a request from the Indian G20 Presidency, the OECD delivered a report making the case for enhanced tax transparency on real estate and setting out a number of conceptual solutions to improve the existing architecture on a voluntary basis. Since then, technical work has continued at OECD-level to refine the understanding of the information needs of tax administrations, the information they have available and the steps needed to deliver increased transparency in this area. Against this background, this report sets out the building blocks to bring increased transparency into practice. These building blocks can be adopted incrementally by interested jurisdictions, starting with maximising exchanges of readily available information between interested jurisdictions and progressively moving towards more structural solutions for international co-operation on real estate, underpinned by reliable data sources and efficient methods for receiving the information that is relevant for tax purposes. These structural solutions would also ensure access to beneficial owner information when real estate is held through legal entities or arrangements. This report was prepared by the OECD to inform the discussions at the July 2024 meeting of G20 Finance Ministers and Central Bank Governors, at the request of the G20 Brazilian Presidency.
This report, commissioned by the Brazilian G20 Presidency ahead of the July 2024 G20 Finance Ministers and Central Bank Governors meeting, contributes to discussions on the role of tax systems in addressing inequality. It explores how tax systems can mitigate or exacerbate inequality with a focus on the distribution of income and wealth and identifies scope for potential reform. It zooms in on the specific tax policy and compliance challenges associated with taxing high-net-worth individuals (HNWIs), some of which have a cross-border dimension.
