The Commission’s Clearing and Settlement Fiscal Compliance expert group (FISCO) met for the first time on 15 April. The group will look at the fiscal barriers to cross-border buying and selling of stocks and shares that were identified in the Giovannini reports.
Within the next two years the group will produce a study whether national fiscal compliance procedures should be more closely aligned, and will advise on ways to remove or substantially reduce these barriers.
FISCO will look at alternative ways for Member States to secure their tax receipts, while permitting all financial institutions across the European Union to compete on an equal footing. It will liaise with the CESAME group and the “Group of 30” and other international bodies.
