It is often said (on the basis of a misreading of an old UNCTAD report) that 60% of world trade happens within multinational companies. But best estimates are that it is around 30% says @nickshaxson at @TaxJusticeNet https://www.taxjustice.net/2019/04/09/over-a-third-or-more-of-world-trade-happens-inside-multinational-corporations/ …
Nick. I know that John Neighbour when he was at @OECDtax once said 60% in an article in the OECD Observer magazine, and it was perhaps an honest mistake by many to read this as 'the OECD says' http://oecdobserver.org/news/archivestory.php/aid/670/Transfer_pricing:_Keeping_it_at_arms_length.html …

But it is unreferenced statement, and not in an official OECD report. So i think it is a mistake to interpret this (then, and still now) as the OECD "clearly saying" 60%pic.twitter.com/48536s7A2F

As to the playground personal slurs about being me anti-NGO and having some hidden motivations as part of a nefarious crowd....
As I said, this was nasty and unhealthy behaviour in 2015, and it still is. Wanting NGOs to be rigorous is not being 'anti-NGO'. - 6 more replies
