SMU-TA Centre for Excellence in Taxation Inaugural Conference: The SMU-TA Centre for Excellence in Taxation is pleased to present its inaugural conference on and Global Tax Co-operation? This conference represents a unique forum for tax practitioners, policymakers and academics to discuss key issues on international tax policies and trends with particular focus on Asia. You will hear leading thoughts on the directions of tax competition and how governments will find the opportunities and challenges in use of tax tools for growth and development. Can tax incentives tools be designed to be more effective and meet the new international tax standards? You will garner the views of government and revenue officials and experts on the way forward for tax competition. CET researchers will present their findings on how many of the BEPS recommendations will operate for Asian economies. You will hear about the new rules in taxing of intangibles, in limiting access to treaties and preventing of treaty abuses and how these could possibly be implemented for Asia economies. The tax community has to brace itself for more tax reporting requirements and the transparency arising from more information sharing amongst governments. And in the evolving international tax world, tax disputes seem to an emerging inevitable. How can tax practitioners and governments in the region work together to resolve such disputes. Hear from a distinguished line-up of speakers and panelists amongst them - Prof Dr Jeffrey Owens, Professor Eric M. Zolt, Prof David Rosenbloom, Joseph Andrus, Andy Baik and Jeff Westphal.

2 Morning Session 8.15am-8.55am 9.00am-9.10am Registration Conference Opening 9.10am-9.45am Keynote Address 1 Tax Competition in the New World - Opportunities and Challenges for Governments The economic realities of attracting investments, generating jobs and finding growth remain, particularly for many Asian emerging economies. However, fiscal costs in tax competition could be high. Will governments shun tax competition? 9.45am-10.15am 10.15am-10.45am 10.45am-11.45am 11.45am-12.15pm 12.15pm-1.45pm Designing Effective Tax Incentives - Maximizing the Benefits and Minimising the Costs What are the elements in the design and implementation of a robust and effective tax incentive system? What are benchmarked practices that can be drawn from the experiences of countries like Singapore? Coffee Break Panel Discussion: Growth, Tax Competition and the Future of Tax Competition in post-beps World with particular focus on Asia How to design pro-growth tax systems in the region? How to reconcile the need for competitive tax systems with a fair distribution of the tax burden? Analysing treaty policy trends in a post-beps world Action 6 in the OECD's BEPS Action Plan proposed a series of measures to control the abuse of treaties. It has been easy to organise a consensus on what and how to do. Some countries have also taken unilateral measures. This paper examines the current state of developments in protecting against treaty abuse. Lunch Afternoon Session 1.45pm-2.15pm Keynote Address 2 Tax Disputes and the role of MAP and Arbitration? How can revenue authorities and taxpayers leverage on Mutual Agreement Procedures to resolve differences? Is there a bigger role for effective resolution of disputes through arbitration? What lessons are there for Asian authorities thinking about disputes resolution mechanisms?
3 Afternoon Session (cont.) 2.15pm-2.45pm 2.45pm-3.15pm 3.15pm-3.45pm 3.45pm-4.15pm 4.15pm-4.45pm 4.45pm-5.15pm 5.15pm-6.15pm 6.15pm Analysing the likely trends in limitation of benefits in Asian Tax Treaties post-beps Limitation of benefits is one of the two options in dealing with misuse of treaties. How could this option be adopted and adapted in Asian tax treaties? Implications of BEPS on Intangibles The BEPS work has resulted in significant modification of transfer pricing rules related to the development and exploitation of intangibles, the transfer pricing treatment of hard to value intangibles, the treatment of risks related to intangible development and the use of cost contribution arrangements. The BEPS work has also considered the appropriate scope of country patent box regimes designed to attract intangible development activity. What would be the impact of these BEPS developments on corporate activities relating to the development and exploitation of intangible assets? Taxing and Pricing the Intangibles What are the complex issues and global debates surrounding the taxation, pricing and valuation of intangibles? What are the practical solutions that Asian tax communities could adopt and mitigate tax risks in the present global environment? Coffee Break Tax Structures using Branches and Hybrid Entities Moving with the times Recent developments in international taxation has brought renewed focus on the use of tax efficient structures. Will the use of branches in a typical central entrepreneur/principal supply chain model still work in light of the international developments? Are hybrid entities being used to obtain Singapore tax benefits and what are the policy responses for Singapore in the light of the evolving international tax rules? New Technologies and Information Requirements in post- BEPS world is Asia ready? The post-beps world will see more taxpayers reporting and information sharing amongst revenue authorities. What capabilities and transformation would be needed in data infrastructures to keep compliance costs in check and data secured? Panel Discussion: In pursuit of Tax Research for Growth, Tax Competition and Development End
