“A Material Concern: The Investor Case for Country-by-Country Reporting”

Investors are fumbling around in the dark trying to assess tax and geopolitical risks facing multinational companies. FACT’s latest report, “A Material Concern: The Investor Case for Country-by-Country Reporting,” spotlights examples of dramatic revenue and tax implications for investors stemming from global events and tax practices of major multinational companies like Amazon, Pfizer, McDonalds, Shell, and Dell, that current public company disclosure requirements fail to address.

Prudent investors increasingly are asking for information that will allow them to efficiently allocate capital in light of international tax reforms, geopolitical crises, and the ever changing legal environment. To tackle the uncertainty investors face, FACT recommends that the Securities and Exchange Commission use its current rulemaking authority to implement public country-by-country reporting (PCbCR). FACT’s report demonstrates why investors need public country-by-country reporting of fundamental information like corporate revenues broken down on a related and third-party basis, profits, assets, employees, and taxes paid. Through PCbCR, investors would gain meaningful insights into these risks and their impacts on free cash flow, corporate governance and operational practices, as well as geopolitical concerns.

Join FACT as we convene with corporate and investor voices to discuss the findings of the report and the importance of PCbCR to achieving more efficient and transparent capital markets.
