Prof. Hill Quoted in Star Tribune on Tax Inversions
Professor Claire Hill was quoted in a Star Tribune article on a recent poll on tax inversions. Inversions are transactions in which U.S. companies reincorporate in other countries with lower tax rates. Hill noted that inversions had become the "devil du jour" even though companies can and do use many techniques to reduce their taxes. She also noted that a comprehensive tax reform proposal would be preferable to simply addressing inversions, but that the latter was probably more likely given the negative attention inversions have attracted.
