      Publishing CBCR reports: is it the inevitable march of progress or are there principled reasons to be unconvinced?https://www.cgdev.org/blog/no-country-country-reporting-why-not-and-if-not-then-what …

      I can understand being unconvinced, but are costs so high that it can't be justified on grounds it might be helpful?

      I think the costs/risks are real so needs clearer justification than ‘might be helpful’ e.g. Helpful for what? How do we know?

      I.e. What is the chance that a proposed tool developed in 2003 and little changed since must be the best approach?

      .. My naive supposition was that if risk is vexatious attacks by campaigners, corps would then only do things relatively easy to defend ..

      Anything which leads to timing differences between book recognition and tax recognition tends to get attacked. It's just not worth it.

      isn't that easy to explain? won't corps easily withstand daft attacks such as that?

      Sure they can, but I remain concerned about the wider impact of these attacks on tax morale and tax policy development more generally

      The problem is who would bat? Company’s own defence not seen as credible. No one willing to say “no that’s not what we mean by dodging”.

          The NGOs et al have never drawn that distinction. No incentive for corporates to change behaviour - they'll always be criticised.

          Agreed. Companies have been accused of avoidance when profits sheltered by *current period losses*. My favourite:https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2016/oct/12/donald-trump-scotland-golf-course-resort-losses …
