Incitations fiscales à l'endettement pour les institutions financières : une correction nécessaire ?

Speaker: Michael Troege - Professor of Finance at ESCP Europe - Member of Labex Refi 

Addressing the pro-debt bias of corporate taxation is now firmly on the policy agenda: US presidential candidates Marco Rubio and Jeb Bush have proposed tax reforms that would make interest non-deductible, the European Commission has expressed its intention to make taxation leverage- neutral and the German Ministry for Economy wants to make equity tax deductible.

Présentation
These proposed tax reforms provide unique challenges and opportunities for banks. From a regulatory point of view the pro debt bias is particularly pernicious for financial institution as it directly counters regulators’ efforts to increase the use of equity.

This research contribution will review these recent reform proposals and discuss their relevance for the financial sector. We argue that a well-structured bank-specific tax reform is necessary to maintain the banks’ competitiveness in a world of increasing capital adequacy requirements and present the outlines of such a reform proposal.
