Edition 97: Another Great Depression or tax justice and transparency?

In this month’s Taxcast:

• the French strikes – tax justice and pensions vs financialisation
• the EU countries who’ve missed the deadline on publishing registers of real corporate owners
• the effect of Brexit on poorer (aka plundered) countries
• And the IMF’s stark warnings about the finance curse and another Great Depression

After many requests, we’re also providing a transcript of the programme, (which will not be 100% accurate). Transcript of the Taxcast, January 2020
