In the wake of the 2008 financial crisis, there is increasing interest in the idea of taxing financial transactions. These small taxes on trades of stocks, derivatives, and other financial instruments are also sometimes referred to as a financial speculation tax, Wall Street Trading tax or Robin Hood tax. Eleven European countries have already begun advancing negotiations over the first regional financial transactions tax.
This webinar will answer some frequently asked questions about the issue, including a background on the financial transactions tax, the experience with the FTT, and the current state of debate and action in Europe and the United States. Join Manfred Bergmann, the Director of Indirect Taxation and Tax Administration at the European Commission,John Fullerton, Founder and President of Capital Institute and a former Managing Director at JPMorgan, and Sarah Anderson, Global Economy Project Director at the Institute for Policy Studies. Cost: Free for members.
