OECD releases peer review documents for information exchanges under BEPS
The OECD recently published documents which will form the basis of the peer review of Action 13 Country-by-Country Reporting and for the peer review of the Action 5 transparency framework.
The Action 13 standard on Country-by-Country Reporting and the Action 5 standard for the compulsory spontaneous exchange of information on tax rulings (the “transparency framework”) are two of the four BEPS minimum standards. Each of the four BEPS minimum standards is subject to peer review in order to ensure timely and accurate implementation and thus safeguard the level playing field. All members of the Inclusive Framework on BEPS commit to implementing the minimum standards and participating in the peer reviews.
