OECD's Saint-Amans Interview on Tax Evasion

Oct. 1 (Bloomberg) -- Pascal Saint-Amans, head of the international cooperation and tax competition division at the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development, talks about the OECD's study of tax havens and international efforts to eliminate tax evasion. The Group of 20 nations has called for a fresh drive against tax evasion since the financial crisis that started in 2008. The OECD, which tracks compliance with tax standards, said in January that nations signed 195 tax-information exchange agreements last year, up from 23 in 2008, as they sought to be struck off the group’s "gray list" of tax havens. Saint-Amans speaks with Mark Barton on Bloomberg Television's "Global Connection." (Source: Bloomberg)
