For the first time, finance leaders from G20 countries have agreed on a wealth tax on the world’s super-rich. It could raise around €230 billion to tackle causes like climate change and poverty. The wealth tax was proposed at a meeting between treasury ministers and central bankers from the world’s biggest developed and emerging economies in Rio de Janeiro. A joint statement last Friday said all countries had agreed to “engage cooperatively to ensure that ultra-high-net-worth individuals are effectively taxed.” Beneath this consensus, however, disagreements are bubbling about whether the plan ...

Los ministros de Finanzas se reunieron en Río de Janeiro para debatir los controvertidos planes para recaudar hasta 250.000 millones de dólares (230.000 millones de euros) mediante un nuevo impuesto a los multimillonarios. Los activistas afirman que será un gran paso adelante para resolver el problema de la desigualdad, aunque el Grupo de las Veinte Principales Economías (G-20) se vea bloqueado por Estados Unidos a la hora de aprobar el impuesto sobre la riqueza extrema. El Observatorio Fiscal de la UE propuso el nuevo impuesto el año pasado como forma de resolver las lagunas del actual sistem...

By Ali BEKHTAOUI Rio de Janeiro (AFP) - Les pays du G20 se sont engagés vendredi à Rio de Janeiro à "coopérer" pour que les super-riches soient davantage taxés, au nom de la lutte contre les inégalités, mais sans aller jusqu'à s'accorder sur un impôt mondial. Le sujet a dominé une réunion de deux jours des ministres des Finances du groupe formé par les 19 plus grandes économies mondiales, l'Union européenne et l'Union africaine. Ce rendez-vous devait préparer le sommet entre chefs d'Etat et de gouvernement du G20 prévu les 18 et 19 novembre, également à Rio. Poussée par le Brésil du président ...

Rio de Janeiro (AFP) - The United States sees no need to negotiate an international agreement on taxing the super-wealthy, Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen said Thursday on the sideline of a G20 finance ministers' meeting. The topic is a key priority of Brazil's leftist president, Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva, who this year heads the grouping of the world's major economies, the European Union and African Union. Yellen's remarks highlighted the divisions among G20 members on the issue. "Tax policy is very difficult to coordinate globally," Yellen told a press conference in Rio de Janeiro. "We don't...

Rio de Janeiro (AFP) - Les Etats-Unis ne voient "pas le besoin" de négocier à l'échelle internationale une taxation sur les plus grandes fortunes, a affirmé jeudi la secrétaire américaine au Trésor Janet Yellen, appelant plutôt chaque Etat à instaurer un système fiscal "juste et progressif". "La politique fiscale est très difficile à coordonner à l'échelle internationale, et nous ne voyons pas le besoin, ni ne pensons qu'il soit souhaitable d'essayer de négocier un accord international sur cela", a affirmé la dirigeante américaine au cours d'une conférence de presse à Rio de Janeiro, répondant...

Le Brésil assure actuellement la présidence des 20 principaux pays riches et en développement et le président Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva a placé les questions qui concernent le monde en développement, telles que la réduction des inégalités et la réforme des institutions multilatérales, au cœur de son programme. La présidence brésilienne du G20 avait commandé pour juin dernier un rapport sur les détails et la faisabilité d'un impôt minimum coordonné sur les milliardaires du monde entier. Une première étape importante pour garantir l'engagement politique en faveur d'un véritable programme d'impos...

Finance ministers are gathering today (25 July) in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, to discuss controversial plans to raise as much as $250 billion (€230 billion) from a new tax on billionaires. Campaigners say that will be a big step forward for resolving inequality – even if the group of twenty major economies (G-20) may be blocked by the US from endorsing the levy on extreme wealth. The new tax was proposed by the EU Tax Observatory last year, as a way to resolve loopholes in the current taxation system – and last month, its researchers were asked by the Brazilian G-20 presidency to set out their pl...
