New withholding tax procedures to make life easier for investors

On 19 June, the European Commission proposed new rules to make withholding tax procedures in the EU more efficient and secure for investors, financial intermediaries and Member State tax administrations.

For this month’s interview, we spoke to Marc Clercx and to Lourdes Bustos, the TAXUD officials who helped design the new procedures, and asked them to explain why the new rules were needed and how they will help businesses and tax administrations.
