SUMMARY:Global Minimum Tax and Investment Treaty Arbitration
DESCRIPTION:The Department of Law of the Faculty of Law, Economics and Finance is pleased to invite you to a seminar on Global Minimum Tax\n\nAbstract:\n\nThe Seminar is a result of the participation of many authors from different countries in a special issue of Intertax “Global Minimum Tax and Investment Treaty Arbitration” under the guest editorship Prof. Stef van Weeghel, Prof. Werner Haslehner, and Dr. Hab. Błażej Kuźniacki and the general editorship of Prof. Ana Paula Dourado.\n\nDuring the Seminar, the authors will present and discuss selected articles in order to spot their strongest and weakest points. A lively and dynamic discussion aims to help the authors in improving their articles for the final submission subject to double blind peer-review process at the Intertax.\n\nThe selected articles present the interplay between Pillar 2 and investment treaty arbitration (ITA) from various angles, including more general and more narrowly technical ones, as listed in the detailed agenda below.\n\nLanguage: English\n\nThis is a free seminar.
