On 11 April LFMI initiated a petition against the efforts to create a Common Consolidated Corporate Tax Base which was signed and disseminated by a group of European economic research institutes and individuals both from the old and new member states.
The latest study from LFMI provides an in-depth analysis of tax harmonization, its goals and their feasibility as well as potential implications of planned harmonization of the corporate tax base across the EU.
On 14 February 2006, LFMI released a petition signed by 16 European free-market think tanks, calling EU institutions and national governments to consider the implications of the excise tax policy for the new member states and to start debates on changes thereof.
