This article has been mentioned by multiple media organizations:

Brad Setser (19 February 2019). "Why the U.S. Tax Reform's International Provisions Need to Be Reformed". The Council on Foreign Relations. Retrieved 25 April 2019. The best source I have found for all this is Wikipedia. The jargon can be daunting ("CAIA", "BEPS"), but the result is clear enough—a very low effective tax rate
Gavin Daly (14 April 2019). "IDA defends itself in Wikipedia war of words on tax". The Sunday Times. Retrieved 25 April 2019.
Aidan Regan (25 April 2019). "Ireland is a tax haven — and that's becoming controversial at home". The Washington Post. Retrieved 25 April 2019. The campaign also drew attention to various Wikipedia articles that clarify the complexities of these tax-avoidance schemes. Politicians, policymakers, and the legal-finance profession responded vigorously and tried to discredit the Wikipedia articles. But none of these critiques have challenged their substantive truth.

Consistent false information

Latest comment: 4 years ago1 comment1 person in discussion

This article - written by Britishfinance - contains consistently false, exaggerated, and distorted information that is used in a political manner to attack Ireland and its corporate tax policy. Whether Ireland's corporate tax regime is right or wrong is certainly up for debate; however, it is vitally important to keep to the facts, and that is something that this article fails to do. It must also be noted that Britishfinance has made numerous personal attacks against IDA Ireland CEO Mark Shanahan.

I recommend at the very least reading this article with severe reservations. This is an article which simply does not meet Wikipedia's standards of objectivity, accuracy and integrity. Duke Of Dirty Dancing (talk) 20:29, 13 August 2021 (UTC)Reply
