Background<\/b><\/p>\n

Private actors and finance are at the centre of global and national development initiatives, for both governments and international bodies. Development finance institutions (DFIs) play a central role by providing finance and advice to companies that invest in developing countries. They are institutions with a development mandate and their activities will be key to financing sustainable development. To deliver sustainable development outcomes and to leave no-one behind, it is crucial that the practices of the private sector actors and of the financial institutions supporting them are effective and impactful. They must ensure due diligence and compliance with UN Guiding Principles for business and human rights, but also go beyond this and assist the world in achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). NGOs and DFIs share an interest in ensuring their policies and development impacts are the best they can possibly be.\u00a0 \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Both the Financing for Development (FfD) outcome document and the SDG agenda emphasised that tax revenues will be critical. However, the\u00a0<\/span>Panama Papers<\/span><\/i>\u00a0have shown once again how tax rules and tax collection are being avoided by the rich and the powerful through an industry of offshore structures with no meaningful economic activity. The International Monetary Fund (IMF) has calculated that profit shifting by multinational enterprises (MNEs) through offshore structures leading to erosion of tax bases should be a big concern for developing countries<\/span>[1]<\/span><\/a>. This underlines the challenge of not only ensuring legal compliance in tax matters, but also going beyond this, towards responsible tax behaviour of the private sector, which is also recognised in the Addis Tax Initiative and supported by a global movement for tax justice with strong roots in developing countries.<\/span><\/p>\n

A key question is therefore how the development community \u2013 governments, NGOs, DFIs and the private sector \u2013 can work together to ensure that investments deliver on sustainable development. They must also ensure that companies, particularly those supported by public resources, pay their fair share of tax. As public institutions with a development mandate, DFIs should be standard setters when it comes to developing and implementing effective safeguards and policies to ensure that the companies they invest in demonstrate responsible tax practices. National governments and politicians around the world also have a key responsibility in ensuring this.<\/span><\/p>\n

About the conference<\/b><\/p>\n

This one-day public conference concludes a three-year project on establishing responsible tax standards for DFIs, run by Oxfam IBIS in collaboration with Eurodad, Latindadd and Tax Justice Network Africa<\/span>[2]<\/span><\/a>. The conference will assess progress made on this agenda and discuss what still needs to be done. It aims to gather 80 participants from the development community, including government officials from North and South, parliamentarians, UN officials, and representatives from multilateral and bilateral DFIs, as well as academics, civil society organisations and private sector actors.\u00a0<\/span>To register, click\u00a0<\/b>here<\/b><\/a>.<\/b><\/p>\n
