HONORABLE CÁMARA:

Además en representación de! Senado nos acompañaron los Honorables Senadores Andrés Zaldívar y José García Ruminot. En Anexo 2 se incluyen todos los participantes del seminario.

I.-ANTECEDENTES.

La OCDE en forma anual desarrolla dos Seminarios de Alto Nivel destinado a Parlamentarios de los países miembros, cuyo tema central durante esta versión fue la situación Económica , Financiera y Social y sus proyecciones, así como temas específicos relacionados con Emisiones Contaminantes, Energía, Educación, Cooperación, Innovación y especialmente la situación Tributaria y la Evasión y Elusión. (En Anexo 3 se detalla el programa)

En esta oportunidad , además, se incluyen como participantes a los Parlamentarios de la NATO, alcanzando un total de 113 representantes más especialistas y asesores.

II. REUNIÓN DE TRABAJO PARLAMENTARIO.

Durante la visita tuvimos una reunión de trabajo con e! Sr. Embajador Ignacio Briones, con quien se analizó en detalle las perspectivas del Gobierno de Chile y el Parlamento en relación a la OCDE, especialmente en lo referente a la plataforma con documentos y recomendaciones de política sobre los más variados temas que puedan ser de utilidad para la discusión legislativa en Chile, en esta ocasión destacando el futuro trabajo sobre Impuestos y Reforma Tributaria. L-SEMINARIO PARLAMENTARIO.

El Secretario General de la OCDE, Ángel Gurria dio la bienvenida a las delegaciones integrantes de !a red Parlamentaria de la organización

El Señor Gurria dio un extenso discurso en el cual destacó la participación de la Delegación Chilena y de su reciente visita al país en Octubre pasado. En Anexo 4 se incluye un resumen del discurso del Ángel Gurria.

El Director de Asuntos Públicos y Comunicaciones de la OCDE, Señor Anthony Gooch, dio la bienvenida a los participantes del Seminario Parlamentario.

E! Seminario comenzó con la exposición de !os Profesores y Expertos Pier Cario Padoan, Deputy Secretary - General and Chief Economist, OCDE y Adrián Blundell - Wignall, Deputy Director, Sepecial Advisor ío the Secretary General for Financial Markets, OCDE y Paul Swaim, Sénior Economist, Directorate for Employment, Labour an Social Affairs, OCDE, en la cual principalmente se refirieron a las perspectivas económicas y al panorama del empleo para el año 2014, buscando que los Parlamentarios presentes reflexionen acerca de cuáles elementos deberá contener un marco para políticas públicas, orientadas especialmente a tomar conciencia que a los trabajadores de mayor edad les va relativamente mejor que a los jóvenes en el mercado laboral, que la legislación de protección del empleo se está volviendo menos estricta en estos tiempos de crisis, y que las políticas de activación bien diseñadas sí promueven y ayudan a los desempleados a encontrar trabajo. Un detalle explícito de la exposición de cada uno de los exponentes, se adjunta en Anexo 5.

En relación a la Economía Global, Pier Cario señaló que si bien se aprecia una leve recuperación, existe el riesgo de que la recesión se mantenga y por lo tanto, se requieren de políticas públicas que aseguren un crecimiento más sustentable. Señaló que en las economías más avanzadas se aprecian indicadores positivos pero se mantienen las dudas respecto a la generación de flujos de capitales y los déficit aún son potentes.

Pier Padoan, señaló que todavía esta no se aprecia como consolidada existiendo aún debilidad en las Inversiones, Comercio lento, Créditos Internacionales aún en despegue y el problema del desempleo. Destacó además, que China está creciendo con consistencia pero se aprecia que en deuda pública está creciendo, lo cual es una preocupación. El lado negativo proviene de las economías emergentes. También mencionó la situación del Euro y sus debilidades debido a las dificultades en varios países Europeos. Se expresó por parte de los expositores su preocupación por el tema energético global señalando la dicotomía de que los importadores actuales se convierten en exportadores y vice versa pero las soluciones a futuro aún son inciertas en esta área, especial preocupación respecto al precio futuro de la energía mencionada que los precios señalan que el crecimiento de la demanda por energía se está produciendo en el sur de Asia, significativamente en China e India.

Después de un almuerzo de trabajo y comentarios entre los participantes, se continuó el Seminario con el tema de las emisiones de carbón con la participación de los expertos Simón Upton, Director, Environment Directorate OCDE, Nils Axel Braathen, Principa! Administrator, En vi ron menta I Performance and Information División, Environment Directorate, OCDE. (En Anexo 6 se detalla la exposición)

En la Sesión de la tarde se señaló el cambio de la composición energética con un incremento del gas y renovables. En Anexo 7 se detalla las exposiciones.

Posteriormente, el experto Andreas Schleicher, Deputy Director and Special Advisor on Educatíon Policy to the Secretan/ General, Directorate for Education and Skills, mostró y analizó un reciente estudio sobre la calidad y cantidad de educación requerida y en dicho estudio se mencionó a nuestro país como el de peor resultado PISA (Programa Internacional de Situación de Estudiantes) medido en 65 países muestra que nuestro país tiene en esta materia mucho que avanzar. Este estudio debería ser analizado en detalle en la Comisión de Educación y con las nuevas y respectivas Autoridades. En Anexo 8 se acompaña comentarios sobre la situación en Francia. En Anexo 9 se muestran los resultados del PISA.

El segundo día de trabajo se dedicó especialmente a la Cooperación, cuyo especialista Erik Solheim, Chair, Development Assistance Committee, OCDE, recalcó ¡a urgente necesidad de reforzar la cooperación e intercambio de capitales, relación modo privado - público, compartir agendas, pensando en una comunidad Global, siendo la OCDE un ejemplo de este aspecto.

Luego Mark Pearson, Deputy Director.Dírectorate for Employment, Labour and Social Affair, OCDE, se refirió al problema mundial de la demencia, ya que es un tema al cual nos se le ha dado la debida consideración por los efectos que está teniendo en las familias y en los respectivos sistemas de Salud. Se requiere un esfuerzo especial para realizar diagnósticos y tratamientos efectivos sobre este nuevo problema detectado, buscando una colaboración entre los Sectores Públicos y Privados de Salud para una solución más real. Hizo un llamado a los países a tomar conciencia de este problema y realizar las transformaciones adecuadas especialmente mejorando la prevención y tratamiento de la demencia. En Anexo 10 se entregan mayores detalles.

Por último, se realizó y concretó la ¡dea que se sugirió en el último Seminario de este tipo, realizado el 2 de Octubre pasado en virtud del cual se crea el Grupo de Materias Tributarías, como parte del trabajo Parlamentario. La expositora Grace Pérez - Navarro, Deputy Director, Center for Tax Policy and Adrninisíration OCDE, acompañada de Cornelis de JongJ Member of the European Parliament, Netherlands, y Margaret Hogde, Member of Parliament, UK, recordaron lo actuado hasta la fecha por la OCDE en el Plan de Acción que se determinó. Mucho debate al respecto con ideas especialmente sobre ía evasión y la elusión . En Anexo 11 se adjunta un completo detalle de esta importante agenda.

Otro aspecto también mencionado refiere a las políticas de Innovación, en Anexo 12 se dan algunas ideas al respecto

También se dialogó sobre el combate a la corrupción, terna muy de moda y crucial sobre el cual Ángel Gurria se refirió. En Anexo 13 se acompaña discurso..

Adicionalmente se nos entregó el Informe de la OCDE sobre "Mejor Vida" en Chüe, que analiza diferentes aspectos de nuestra vida común de Ingresos, Trabajo, Comunidad, Educación, Sociedad Civil, Salud, Satisfacción de vida y Seguridad, entregándonos índices al respecto para mayor detalle. En Anexo 14 se pueden tener más antecedentes.

Durante el debate de los diferentes temas ¡os Parlamentarios Chilenos tuvieron importante participación con sus opiniones y señalando la situación Chilena en cada uno de ellos con lo cual, motivaron un encendido intercambio de opiniones con el resto de los Parlamentarios asistentes así como con los expositores en cada área.

Por último, se recordó que el próximo 5 y 6 de Mayo se realizará el Forum Anual en París y el 6 y 7 el Seminario de Ministros de Finanzas, Anexo 15.

Es todo lo que puedo informar a la Honorable Cámara de Diputados.

Alíhough the world is not currently on -írack to meet iís goal of maintaining the global temperatura ¡ncrease below 2°C, a range of policies have been ¡mplemented, with míxed success. Economic theory indicates íhaí a pnce on CÜ2 emissions from fossil fuels and other sources is needed ¡f countries are to minímise the overall cost of reducing their emissions. At presení, fossil fuels are priced and taxed ai levéis that díffer vastly across fuels, uses, and countries, índicaííng áreas of possible ímprovements.

15.15-16.45 World Energy Outlook • Fatih Birol, Chíef Economist, International Energy Agency A new global energy landscape is emerging, resetting long-held expecíations for our energy future. Bringing together íhe latest data and policy developrnenís, íhe World Energy Outlook 2013 presents up to date, projecíions of energy trends through to 2035, fue! by fuel, sector by sector, región by región and scenarjo by scenario. Oil is analysed in-depth: resources, production, demand, refining and International írade. Energy efficiency is treaíed in much the same way as conventíona! fuels: Its prospects and contributíon are presented ¡n a dedícated chapíer. The report examines the outlook for BrazÜ's energy sector and provides updates on three key áreas of critical importance to energy and climate trends: (i) achíeving universal energy access; (¡i) developments in subsidies to fossil fuels and renewables; and (iii) the irnpact of energy use on climate change. Ojl supply, demand and trade: a fresh look at the economics and decline rates of different types of oil producíion around the worid, íhe prospects for light tight oil inside and ouíside North America, aiong with new analysis of oil products and the refiníng sector.

16.45 -18.00 The OECD Sküls Outlook ancí PISA Andreas Schfeicher, Deputy Director and Specía! Advisor on Educatlon Policy to the Secretary- General, Directorate for Educatión and Skllls, OECD Skills have become the global currency of 21 ^ century economies. Wiíhout sufficient ínvesíment ¡n skills peopie languish on the margins of society, technological progress does not transíate inío productívity growth, and countries can no longer compete in an increasingly knowledge-based global economy. And, ai a time when growing economic and social ¡nequaüties are a major challenge, effective skills policies must be part of any response to address this challenge. But this 'currency' deprecíales as skill requirements of labour markets evolve and individuáis lose the skills they do not use. For skills to reíain íheir valué, they rnust be continuously maintained and upgraded throughout Ufe so íhat peopie can collaboraíe, compete and connect ¡n ways tnaí drive economies forward. With its skill assessment programóles PISA and RIAAC, íhe OECD has developed global metrics noí only to assess the quality and quantity of the skills avaiiable ¡n the populaíion, buí also to help policy-makers determine and anticípate íhe skills required ¡n the labour markeí; develop and deploy those skills in the most effective and equitable ways; and esíablish sustainable approaches to who should pay for whaí, when and how.

Five key challenges include 1) A mulíi-polar world: AII major issues today and in the fuíure require broad agreement of a growing number of nations. 2) The threat ío the global environmení and cümate is more real than ever. The poor are noí íhe cause, but often the mast exposed to this threat. Forthe poor, who are most exposed, dealmg with climate chsnge cannot BETTER PQL1CIESFOR BETTER UVES

be separated from their development aspiratíons. The divide between the global environment, climate change and the development agendas must be bridged. 3) While the world as a whole is getting richer and the global middle class larger, more than one billíon people are still living in absolute poverty - many of them in fragüe states. A specíal focus on these countries is essential. 4) Capital flows to developing countries - prívate ínvestment, trade, remittances, but also illíclt ílows - now vastly outstrip ODA. At the same time, ODA remains by far the most important, and otten vírtually the only, external resources for the poorest countries. There is a need to better align these flows to achieve the greatest development progress. 5) There ¡s a shift from mtentions, or money spent, to results - real changes on the ground - in the global development community, We must build systems that are much better at measunng and evaluating results, because this is what counts for the poor people ot the world.

About 5.5% of people aged over 60 had dementia across all OECD countries in 2009, but prevalence rates soar to nearly one every two people aged 90 years and older. This ¡s not a challenge for OECD countries alone. An estimated 58% ot the 36 millíon people living wíth dementia in 2010 worldwíde are from middle and lower-income countries. There is no known cure for dementia, ñor effective therapíes to slow down its progression. Efforts to develop reliable diagnosíic techniques and effective treatments have exposed weaknesses in the way that health systems, researchers and companies interact. There ¡s a need to change the way public and prívate stakeholders collaborate at national and global levéis to address this issue. Furthermore, health and long-term care systems struggle to offer the coordinated response - in terms of information systems, quality protocols and workers' skills - needed to delíver hígh-qualíty sen/ices to this vulnerable population group.

14:30 -18:00 Bilateral meetings with OECD experts and OECD member countty delegations (upon requesí)

Fríday, 7 February 2014

Ali day Bilateral meetings wiíh OECD experts and OECD member couníry delegations (upon request) (As preparad for delivery) Good morning Ladies and Gentlemen,

Let me welcome you al! to the OECD. l'm glad to see so many of you here today. We have a record turnout for our 2nd OECD Parliamentary Days, which is a sign that the OECD Parliamentary Network is going in the right directa! •

This year we decided to combine our "seminar with the annual visit of the NATO Parliamentary Assembly, with whom we have a longstanding relationship, and 1 want to especially welcome you back ío the OECD.

I want to use mosí of my time this morning ío exchange views and ideas with you, so i will limit my remarks to a few key points.

Six year into the crisis, where do we stand?

There are several encouraging signs that the slow recovery we have been experiencing is finaliy gaining some steam. Recent leading indicators have confirmed the improved outlook for the US economy. We expect U.S. growth to accelerate towards 3% in 2014, after almost 2% in 2013. Activity is also slowiy picking up in Europe and Japan, while China and other emerging market economies are set to maintain relatively high growth rates.

Despite these generally positiva news, the global economy remains ¡n low gear compared to the pre-crisis period and certainly ¡ower than would be expected at this stage of the economic cycie.

Furthermore, the other legacies of the crisis - high unemployment, growing inequality and a decline in public trust - remain firmly anchored in our countries.

OECD-wide unemployment should decrease süghtly this year, though there are still over 13 million more peopie unemployed than in 2008. The OECD-wide unemployment raíe is only expected to fall below 8% around mid-2014, while in Europe ¡t will remain above 12%. Young peopie and the low-skiiled have been hit the hardest. Youth 1 therefore take the opportuniíy of being here, ai this plaíform for the ¡mprovement of the

; worid, Chatham House, to invite the leaders of the 41 member countries of the OECD Working Group on Bribery to lead-by example and to commií to ful! implementation and enforcement of the Convention. I also take íhis chance to announce that in 2014, on the

occasion of íhe 15íh anniversary of the Convention, i will seek the endorsement of our Ministers of a high ievei política! statemení to strengthen our anti-corruption efforts. '

Ladies and Geníiemen:

Our decisions, our agreements, our treaties and conveníions, but most of all, our actions, can reduce the living space for bribery and dishonesty. We can eradicate corrupta. But for thaí we need a collecíive response, a multilateral effort, and a muitidisciplinary programme. The OECD is working on these lines, but we need your heip to succeed. Remember íhe words of Albert Einstein: 'The worid will not be destroyed by íhose who- do evil, buí by those who waích them withouí doing anyíhing".

Thank.you for your attention.

1 OECD, "Government at a Glance 2013", p.9 2 According to the World Bank's estimations. See CleanGovBiz Brochure. 3 The OECD Anti-Bribery Convention enterad ¡nto forcé on 15 February 1999. & According to data provided by LEG and DAF. 5 See OECD Working Group on Bribery, 2012 enforcement data: ww^oeccLorR/daf/antí- bríberv/Work¡ngGroupQnBrjberv_j012EnforcementData.pdf. 6 Adopted by the African Union, the Council of Europe, the League of Arab States, the Organisation of American States, and the United Nations. 7 Fitch. See: http://es.reuters.com/article/idUKTRE65G4MX201Q0601. unemployment remains at dramatic levéis ¡n many couníries, with rates exceeding 55 per cent in Greece and Spain and over 35 per cent in Italy and Portugal.

The Jobs crisis goes hand in hand wiíh risíng inequality. Today, in OECD countries, the average income of the richest 10% of the populaíion ¡s approximately nine times that of the poorest, up from seven to one 25 years ago. Even in traditionally egaliíarian countries - such as Germany, Denmark and Sweden - the income gap between rich and poor is widening - from 5 ío 1 in íhe 1980s to about 6 or 7 to 1 today, while in Chile and México it stands at around 27 to 1.

Public trust in institutions has also taken a beating as a result of the crisis. As shown ¡n our recent publicationj How's Life?, today only 40% of citizens in the OECD trust their naíional governments - íhe lowest ¡evel since 2006. And in countries rnosí affecíed by the crisis, oniy beíween one and three citizens out of ten trust íheir governments, a ratio thaí has more than halved since the síart of the crisis. And it is not just governments that have been hit. Banks, companies, parliamenís, international organisations have also seen a drastic drop in trust and even people's írust in each otherhas suffered!

The pending reform agenda

The globa! outlook is also overshadowed by various uncertaintíes that could set back the still fragüe recoven/. High governmení debt burdens, an unfiníshed agenda to reform íhe banking sector in the euro área and íhe expected. normaüsation of global monetary condiíions pose challenges for íhe recovery. PoHcymakers are ío some extení ío íhe very source of this uncertainty. We need consistent, effecíive and durable policy action to get the cylinders of the growth engine up and running again.

To íackle íhese challenges, we need ío work on several fronts símulíaneously. And we need ío do so considering the interlínkages between different policies and their impact on íhe various dimensíons of well-being.

Leí me focus on íwo key áreas íhe OECD ¡s working on: inclusive and green growth and taxation. 1. Inclusive and green growth:

The OECD's visión for inclusive growth combines strong economic growth with improvements in living standards and outcomes that matterfor people's quaüty of ufe - good health, Jobs and skills, a clean environment, and community support.

Inclusive growth means fostering the best use of all resources for growth - natural and physical capital, all countries and regions, and ail ciíizens: sénior citizens and young peopie, men and women.

To make headway on all these fronts, we need comprehensive structural reforms to help maximise opportunity, education and íraíning, fair taxation and incentives, and programmes to empower all groups of society to fulfil their potential. We need to continué efforts to promote competition, fosíer innovation, and allow the knowledge- based economy to permeate through the different sectors of the economy. Long-term challenges such as ageing should also be turned into opportunities - benefiting from the wisdom and experience of the elderly -, whjle addressing the growing costs of health care and diseases, such as dementia.

The OECD is also working with governments to improve the effectiveness of active labour market policies and activation strategies to reduce the curse of unemployment. Our Action Plan for Youth provides a comprehensive range of measures to address;- youth unemployment, especially long-term unemployment. Our evidence-based PIS5 and PIAAC initiatives together with our Skills Strategy are also contributing to improving education and training systems worldwide. Countries that invest more in knowledge and relevant skills will be more internationally competitive, more innovative, and créate more quality employment.

If done righí, these reforms have the power to both boost economic growth and to address significant social challenges that are the result of years of unequal access and unequal distribution of growth dividends. We a!so need to go further in making growth greener and tackling climate change. We are on a colusión course with nature. As we approach the Conference of the Parties in late 2015 in París (via Warsaw and Lima), we need to take further action now to put us on. a pathway to achieve zero net greenhouse emissions globally in the second half of this century. As well as protecting íhe well-being of future generations, the investment needed ío reduce our reliance on fossil fuel can give a huge boosí to growth.

2 Taxation:

To achieve all these goals, governmenís need ío maintain their finances in order. In addiíion ío íhe consolidation efforts under way in many countries, at íhe OECD we have been working for some time ío puí an end ío íax evasión by wealíhy individuáis and reiri in tax avoidance by muitinational companies. Governmenís cannoí function effectively ií their revenues are syphoned off by unscrupulous individuáis orcorporations.

The OECD has proposed a roadmap to help governmenís address íax avoidance anci ..aggressive tax planning by corporations, íhe Acíion Plan .on.Base Erosión and Profit Shifting. Countries have already staríed working together along íhe lines of íhis action plan supported and mandated by íhe G8 and the G20 and we highly appreciate the support of national and supranational parliaments on íhis projecí.

Anoíher challenge is the fight againsí offshore tax evasión. Wiíh the support oí national governmenís as well as that of the G20, we are now progressing towards a new, more ambiíious, single global síandard for automatic exchange of tax Information. Following our recent Global Forum ¡n Indonesia, the challenge is now to put our commitments into acíion and implemení a íruly global síandard for an ¡ncreasingly borderless world, which we hope ío achieve by July this year. Rebuilding trust

Al! these initiatives wil! help public instiíuíions regain íhe trust of citizens. But more needs to be done in íhis área. Elected poliíicians musí be accountable, and not just ai the ballet box. Corporations need ío betíer manage environmeníal and social risks. And financial markets need ío be rendered more síab!e, ensuring íhat íhey meet their main function of financing productiva economic acíivity and overseeing company boardrooms.

Ai íhe OECD, we are convinced íhaí betíer data, better analysis and ultimately betíer policies are criticai to addressing íhis írust déficit. But ío ensure that better poiicies lead to betíer lives, we also need to íake a cióse look ai the poücy making process ítself. We need open, transparent and accouníable governmenís. Ciíízens need ío be able to access information and actively particípate. And we need to guard against undue influence of vesíed interesís often manifested through lobbying and political finance. These are core elemenís íhat wil! be addressed by íhe OECD's írust strategy.

New Approaches are needed

What we need, ladies and gentlemen, is ío revísií modeis and íheoríes ío quesíion conventionai wísdoms and "esíabiished truíhs." Thafs why we are working on a project called New Approaches to Economic Challenges. lí is an organisaíion-wide reflecíion on the rooís and íessons from the crisis with the aim to catalyse a process of continuous improvement of the OECD analytical framework and policy advice. We are hoping to define more effective policy opíions for governments ío achieve íhe ulíimaíe goal to

improve íhe well-beíng of íheir ciíizens.

You will now hear in more detail abouí many of íhe ¡ssues i íouched on in my remarks. I very much look forward ío your commenís and quesíions and to an interesting and

fruitful discussíon.

Thankyou very much! International parliamentary seminar. The global outlook

Electricity generation

The highest costs per tonne of CO2 abated are associated with various capital subsidies (for renewables, energy-efficient appliances, etc.) and feed-in tariff system - boíh in terms of the averages calcuiated and the máximum valúes observed. The lowest costs per tonne were found for trading systems. The costs were particulariy low when the trading sysíems addressed the environmenta! externaiity as directly as possible • like with a trading system for GHG ernission allowances (rather than- indirectly, such as e.g. "tradabie renewables certiíicates"). Thls confirrns "texíbook suggestions" that trading systems (and broad-based carbón íaxes) are íhe most economicaliy efficiení policy tools to mitígate cümate change.

To surn up

There are clear differences in effective carbón prices: © wíthin a given sector, across the couníries covered; © across the differení secíors, within each country; © across the different instrument types, across a!I the countries covered. The study demónstrales clearly that taxes and emissjon trading systems are much more cost-effeclive than other policy instruments that countries appiy. Many of the other instruments countries apply to Ümit GHG emissions (feed-in taríffs and other subsidies to renewables, various subsidies for low-emission product alternatives, etc.) are very costíy per íonne of CO2eq abaíed. It will be very difficult to reach more ambitious, and urgentiy needed, abaternent objectives if couníries continué to focus theír efforts on such inefficient instruments. 05-Feb-2014

From Exchange on Request to Automatic Exchange

InApril 2013 the G20 Finance Mlnisters and Central Bank Governors first endorsed automatic exchange as the expected new standard. Leaders welcomed ¡n St. Petersburg This is ánother step change in international tax transparency driven by developments around the globe, with unprecedented political support for automatic exchange of information. Reléase of new global standard: 13 February 2014

Backgrouñd

International constraints due to tax sovereignty lead to double taxation Core work of the OECD is to remove barriers to cross-border trade and investment. In tax área we do this by designing International standards/ rules to elimínate double taxation Many rules work wel! but have also resulted in double non- taxation Post-crísis priorities: governments not only need money but they need to ensure the fairness ofthetaxsystem If we wantto maintain our ability to elimínate double taxation, betterto have respected and internationalíy alígned rules and therefore to fix defíciencies

OECD Work ori Taxaíion

* Preventíon.of double taxation remains core work butthere is now recognitionthattheissue of double non-taxatlon dueto base erosión and profítshifting(BEPS) should also betackled

WhatisBEPS? • There are a number of structures which take advantage of asymmetries in dornesticand International tax rules * Artificial separatíon of taxable profitsfrom thejurisdiction where economic activities take place • Most BEPS planning is legal — if governments and parliaments are unhappy with results, the rules should be changed 06/02/2014

Why is.BEPS a problem?

!t distorts competition o Busínesses that opérate cross-border may profitfrom BEPS opportunities whích gives them competitiva odvantages compared to enterprises that opérate mostly at the domestíc leve! It distorts investment decisions o ...towards activitíes that have lowerpre-tax rafes ofreturn buthígherafter tax rotes ofreturn — this may lead to an ineffidént allocation ofresources It ís an issue of fáirness o // other taxpayers think that MNEs can legally avoid paying income tax, it will undermíne voluntary compliance by a!! taxpayers

Increased attention on cocporatetaxaffairs. Spreading perception that MNEs dodge taxes all around the world and ¡n particular in developingcountries

How Big a Problem Is BEPS? (1)

Debate on Statutory vs. Effective Corporate Income Tax Rates — Statuton' tax rates do not provide a reliable measure of the burden that a tax system. imposes on corporate income while ETRs, in particular bactovard-looking ones, could in principie piwide useful indicatíons of whether base erosión and proñtshífting is índeed taking place.

Review of studies relating to BEPS - Availablestudieson Efíective Tax Rates CETRs) ofiVINEs are useful butthere are barely two studies using the same methodolog>'. The use of different raethodologies to calcúlate ETRs (in particular backward-looking ones) resulte in veri- divergent conclusíons regarding the level of taxation imposed on MNEs. 06/02/2014

.How Big a Probiem Is BEPS? (2)

Data on corporate income tax revenues: — Corporate tax receípts vs. GDP have remained stable even thougb tax rates have been falling over time (although appb'edto abroadertaxbase). - Further analysis is needed to assess the importance of all the different factors and therefore arrive at a conclusiva vie\ on the relevance of Lhese data.

Data on Foreign Direct Investments (FDIs): — substantíal share of ínvestments is made through shell companies , e.g. * ln 2010 the Britísh Virgin Islands were second largest investor into China Ci4?S) añer Hong Knhg (45%) and hefore USA (4%) - MauritJusisthetop investor into India C^KJ, whüe Cyprus Ca8%J4 the Brítiih Virgin Tslands (12%), Bermuda (yK) and the Bahamas í.ñ'ío) are among the íop fíve mvestors into Russía — further analysis ofthese datáis also \varranted

Tax Principies and Opportunities for BEPS

ln practica anystructure. aimed at BEPSírrcorporates a numberof co- ord'mated strateg'ies/wh'ich often can be taroken down into four elements —" minimisation of taxation in a foreign operating orsource country either by shífting gross profits vía tradíng structures or reducing net profit by maximísing deductíons at the level of the payer . — lowor no w'rthholdingtaxatsource ~ low or no taxation atthe ievel of the recipient (vía low-taxjurisdictions, preferential regimes, hybrid mismatch arrangements) wjth entitlementto substantial non-routine profitsvia intra-group arrangements ~ no current taxation bf the low taxed profits at level of ultímate parent.

Tax Principies and Opportunities for BEPS (2)

Effect of strategies is that more profit is associated witb. legal constructs and intangible rights and obligatíons, and to legally shifc risk intra-group, .with the result of reducing the share of profits associated with substantive operatíons involving the interaction of people with one another andthe use of physical capital-

There are a number of stnictures, technically legal, which take advantage of asymmetries in domestic and international tax rules

Whatto do aboutthat?

The Febrirary Report calis for coordinated and holistic actíon • No country act'mg on sis own can fíx ¡t • Ifyou onlyfix one issue, pressure on other áreas

A Comprehensiva Action Plan on BEPS by June 2013 • to próvida eountnes with instrumentSj domestic and international, aiming at betíer aügning rights to tax with real economía activity • requiring "out of the box" thinkíng as well as ambítion and pragmatism to overeóme implementation difficulties 06/02/2014:

Developing the Action Plan on BEPS

Foliowingthe February report, the workfocused onthe development of an actipn plan -, The development of the-action plan was also informed by engagement with business and civil socíety (consultations with BIAC,TUACand'NGOs) The action plan was approved atthe meeting ofthe Committee on Fiscal Affairs on 25 June 2013. AII G20 countries participated Itwas published on 19 July 2013 on th.e occasion ofthe G20 Finance Ministers meeting 06/02/2014

The BEPSAction Plan

The actíon plan calis for 15 actions organísed around the following three main pillars: — The coherence of corporate tax atthe internationa! level. — A realignrnent of taxation and substance — Trarisparency, coupled with certainty and predictability It also calls-for targeted work in the área of the digital economy, and for the development of a multilateral instrument to implementthe measures developed under theaction plan.

The Digital Economy (Action 1)

Spread of the digital economy poses challenges for international taxation. The digital econo'my is characterised by an unparalleled reliance on intangible assets, the massive use of data (notably personal data), the widespread adoption of multi-sided business models capturing valué from externalities generated byfree producís, and^he-difficulty of determiningthe jurisdiction in which valué creation occurs. Fundamental questions as to how enterprises ¡n the digital econ'orny add valué and make'their profits, and how the digital economy relates to the concepts of sourceañd 06/02/2014

Coherence (Actions 2 through 5)

The Action Plan calis forthe deveiopmentof internationa! standards to ensure the coherence of corporate tax at the international level • This relates to the need to complementexisting rules to prevent double taxation with Instruments that prevent double non-taxation. >- Neutralisethe effectsof hybrid mismatcharrangements (Action 2) > Strengthen controlled foreign compañías (CFC) rules (Actíon 3) > Lirnit base erosión vía interest deductíons and otherfirian'cial payments [Action 4) > Counter harmful tax practices more effectively (Action 5) -

Substance (Actions 6 through 10)

The Action Plan calis for a realígnment of taxation and substance: * This is about.treaty abuse and transfer pricing, where the current rules do not always produce appropríate results. > Prevent treaty abuse (Action 6} y Preventthe artificial avoidance of Permanent Establishrnent status (Action 7) • > Assure that Transfer Pricmgoutcomesare ¡n line with valué creation - Intangibles/ Risk & capital / High-RiskTransactions and Other Payments (Actions 8, 9,10} 06/02/2014

Transparency and Certainty (Actions 11 íhrough 14)

BEPS requires greater transparency and certainty > Establish methodologies to collectand analyse data on BEPS and the actions to address it (Action 11) > Require taxpayersto disclose theiraggressive tax planning a'rrangements (Action 12) >- Re-examine transfer pricing documentation (Action 13} > Make dispute resoiution mechanisms more effective {Action 14)

Deveioping a Multilateral instrument (Action 15)

Some actions will result in changas to the OECD ModelTax Convention and changas to the OECD fvlodel Tax Convention are not directly effective without a'mendments to bilateral tax treatíes.. If undertaken on a purely treaty-by-treaty basis, the sheer number of treaties in effect will make such a process very lengthy. There ¡s a need to consider innovative ways to implementthe measures resultingfrom the workon the BEPS Action.Plan. 06/02/2014

Registerto receivefree'e-mailalerts on the latest tax news from the OECD Centre for Tox Policy and Administration El capital humano es la esencia de la innovación. Habilitar a la gente para innovar depende de na educación, amplia y apropiada así como del desarrollo de aptitudes de amplia cobertura que mnplementen la educación formal. Los planes de estudio y las pedagogías necesitan adaptarse ara preparar a los estudiantes con la capacidad para que aprendan y apliquen nuevas aptitudes urante su vida. Al mismo tiempo los sistemas para la educación y formación profesional exigen ¿formas para asegurar que sean eficientes y satisfagan las necesidades de la sociedad actual, /lejorar la calidad docente es especialmente importante para mejorar los resultados; esto podría ocluir una mejor selección inicial de maestros, la evaluación continua para identificar áreas para iacer mejoras, y reconocer y premiar la docencia eficaz.

Las instituciones de educación superior y los centros de instrucción práctica son nodos undamentales del sistema de innovación; ambos producen y atraen el capital humano necesario para a innovación. Estas instituciones actúan como puentes indispensables entre los participantes — impresas, gobiernos y países—- en sistemas de innovación más abiertos y más amplios. El principal ;ambio de dirección es reconocer la función imprescindible de las universidades en la iniciativa de la innovación en lugar de considerar simplemente, como se da el caso con excesiva frecuencia, que son proveedores de bienes públicos esenciales. Esto requiere que los responsables de la formulación de políticas presten mayor atención para asegurar la independencia, la competencia, la excelencia, el espíritu emprendedor y la flexibilidad en las universidades.

Los emprendedores-son-participantes.de especial importancia en la innovación; ya que ayudan a convertir las ideas en aplicaciones prácticas. En Estados Unidos, en el 2007, las empresas que tenían menos de cinco años representaban casi dos terceras partes de los nuevos trabajos netos. La creación exitosa de empresas a menudo llega con la práctica; de ahí la importancia de la experimentación, la entrada y la salida del mercado. Sin embargo, sólo una pequeña parte de la población recibe educación para la creación de empresas. Las políticas de educación y capacitación deben ayudar a fomentar una cultura emprendedora al inculcar las aptitudes y actitudes necesarias para un empuje creativo.

El talento internacionalmente móvil contribuye a la creación y difusión del conocimiento: sobre todo del conocimiento tácito. Para estimular esta circulación del conocimiento, los gobiernos deben crear capacidad de absorción, abrir los mercados laborales a los estudiantes extranjeros y asegurar que el régimen fiscal no perjudique a los trabajadores calificados móviles. Por su parte, los países emisores pueden poner en práctica políticas que ofrezcan oportunidades a los investigadores expatriados de reintegrarse a su mercado laboral. Los regímenes de migración para los muy calificados deben ser eficientes, transparentes, sencillos; y permitir el desplazamiento en forma circular o temporal. Las políticas respectivas necesitan ser congruentes con un programa de migración más amplio, y con las políticas de desarrollo y ayuda; de manera que contribuyan al control efectivo de la migración.

La gente participa en la innovación no sólo al crear, difundir o adaptar tecnologías en el lugar de trabajo; sino también como consumidores. Los regímenes de política de consumo y la educación de los consumidores deben mejorar el funcionamiento de los mercados al ayudar a preparar a los consumidores a convertirse en participantes activos del proceso de innovación; y

« Centrarse de manera más estratégica en el papel de las políticas a favor de la innovación para generar un crecimiento más fuerte, menos contaminante y más justo. • Ampliar políticas para promover la innovación además de la ciencia y la tecnología para reconocer que la innovación implica una amplia gama de inversiones en activos intangibles y de participantes. • Políticas de educación y capacitación adaptadas a las necesidades de la sociedad actual, para habilitar a la gente en toda la sociedad para que sea creativa, participe en la innovación y se beneficie de sus resultados. » Mayor atención normativa a la creación 3' desarrollo de nuevas empresas y su papel en la creación de innovaciones claves y fundamentales, así como de nuevos empleos. • Bastante atención al papel fundamental de la investigación científica para permitir la innovación radical y proporcionar los cimientos para la innovación futura. • Mejores mecanismos para promover la difusión y aplicación del conocimiento mediante redes y mercados con buen funcionamiento. • Atención al papel del gobierno al crear nuevas plataformas para la innovación; por ejemplo, mediante el desarrollo de redes de banda ancha de alta velocidad. (As prepared for delivery) Good morning Ladies and Gentlemen,

It is a great pleasure to be at Chatham House to address an ¡ssue of critical global importance: the fight against transnational corruption. Global corruption is one of the greatest challenges of our era: it distorts markets, weakens our governments, raises the costs of doing business, promotes inequaüties and erodes our sustainabie development efforts.

We are talking about one of the biggesí systemic threats of the 21 st century, and it has to be combated with ali our strength and ail our intelligence, with the help of effective international agreements, treat¡9S and conventions. Combating corruption has become one of the top priorities for the OECD and I am therefore delighted to open this Conference. i thank Chatham House for this opportunity.

Nothing like a Bíg Crisis to Combat Corruption

Let me start by pointing to a major wake-up cali in the fight against corrupíion: the crisis. One of the most important revelations of this crisis is that there is an urgent need to build a stronger, more transparent and better coordinated regulatory framework for the global economy. All participants in economic transactions need to develop, together, a set of common rules: on tax evasión, public procurement, due diligence, corporaíe governance, confiict of interest, lobbying, bribery, among others. And we need a joint effort to implement and keep updating these rules through effective and inclusive multilátera! cooperation.

The OECD has been intensifying ¡ts work to help countries buüd and implement these new frameworks and rules in a wide spectrum of policy áreas, with an arsenal of [soft laws1, benchmarks, studies and peer pressure mechanisms. Let me mention a few examples. Our work on Base Erosión Profit Shifíing (BEPS) is providing governments with new domestic and ¡nternational tools to fight tax avoidance. Our Guidelines for Multinational Enterprises provide voluníary principies and standards for responsible business conduct to 45 signatory couníries..0ur Principies for Transparency and Integrity in Lobbying, are helping to improve governance and accountabiiity in an increasingly imporfant activiíy,

One of the major legacies of this crisis is the erosión of public trust in our governments. According to our Government at a Giance 2013 study, confidence in naíiona! governments in OECD countries now stands at a record low leve! of 40%.1 We are also helping countries recover íhat trust. Our Principies for Enhancing Integrity in Public Procuremení are helping governments promoíe transparency, good management, monitoring and accountabiiity in these processes. We are also helping to reduce the risk of capturing of politicíans by promoting more síringent and transparent rules for financing of political campaigns.

We aiso launched a CleanGovBiz iniíiative, which draws together íhe OECD's anti- corruption tools, reinforces their implementation, improves co-ordinaíion among relevant piayers and monitors progress towards integrity. But let me focus ¡n more depth on one of the fields in which we nave deveioped more expertise and global clout: the fight against international bribery, where the OECD Convention on Combating Bribery of Foreign Public Officials in International Business Transactions has become a global reference.

The OECD Ant-Bribery Convention: Evolution (and Revolution!)

It is very difficult to calcúlate the exact cosí of corruptíonj but some have estimated that every year cióse to $1 tríllion dollars2 polluíe our systems and go to waste in bribes, generating a cascade of negaíive synergies for our economies, but most ¡mportaníly, for the life prospects of our peopie. Not so long ago, this practice was still considered part of doing business. in many countries, bribes were still treated as a tax deductible expense. Fortunately, afíer years of hard work, the OECD Anti-Bribery Convention was promulgated and entered into forcé in February of 1999, becoming the first legally-binding international instrument to focus

exclusiveiy on active bribery in business transactions.3

The Convention's rigorous peer review mechanism, the OECD Working Group on Bribery, has been referred to as the 'gold standard' by Transparency International. The Group currently counts 41 member countries - the 34 OECD member states plus Argentina, Brazil, Bulgaria, Colombia, Latvia, Russia and South África. There are still some key players rnissing, such as China, India, Indonesia and Saudi Arabia. But we are committed to convince them to join this fight

Many countries nave made radical changes to their iaws and institutions to comply with the Convention. Governments had to make it a crime for their nationaSs and their companies to pay bribes to pubiic officials abroad in order to win business. This has been achieved by ali member countries, with one of the most recent examples here in the UK, through the UK Bribery Act, which entered inío forcé in 2011, foilowing rigorous and repeated OECD reviews.

The Convention has helped governments to eníorce anti-bribery Iaws and secure convictions. Between 1999 and December 2012, 221 individuáis and 90 companies were

sanctioned for foreign bribery in 13 countries;4 the record fine for a foreign bribery case was imposed against Siemens and, to date, the company has incurred around 1.8 biliion euros ¡n total sanctions, across four jurisdictions, and criminal proceedings continué; we aiso know of 320 ongoing investigations into alleged acts of foreign bribery in 24 Parties

to the Convention.5 Today there are six other multilateral anti-corruption conventions.6 And there ¡s an increasing number of mechanisms ín place to facilitaíe co-operation among law enforcemení authorities, including the biannual informal meetings of iaw enforcement authorities at the OECD. Anti-bribery has now become a key priority for a number of internationa! ¡nstiíuíions. Now there is even a dedicaíed G20 Anti-Bribery Working Group. These are very important achievements.

However, There is Still a Long Road Ahead.

¡n spite of this'remarkable progress, many challenges still persisí. Over half the Working Group on Bribery member countries have yet to successfully prosecute a foreign bribery case. And a number of emerging economies have not yet criminalised foreign bribery in spite of the various international obligations to which they have subscribed.

Our own countries do not always appearto be totaliy coherení. Political leaders may be tempted to defe'nd their national companies even when such companies are suspected or even found guilty of corruption. Recent cases show state owned or síate controlled enterprises can indulge in improper behaviour as much as privately owned companies. And law enforcemení auíhoriíies do not always share information to assist their counterparts ¡n international investigations.

Businesses also need ío take a closer !ook in the mirror. The overwhelming majonty of cases concluded ío date have involved systemic corrupíion across iníernational operaíions of major Multinational Enterprises (MNEs), This lies at íhe heart of the unprecedented crisis of trust íhat our couníries are facing. Corporations need to stop bribing public officials to recover pubiic trust and legitimacy, but most importaníly, to allow markets to work; governments provide good public services; and economies to increase their compeíitiveness. But how do we achieve all this? The Way Forward: Advancing in Several Fronts.

We need to move ahead ¡n several fronts. First and foremost, a!l major economía players must be part of the effort. It is ¡mperative that all G20 countries become Parties to the OECD Anti-Bribery Convention, We aíso need to be consistent ¡n terms of enforcement; and for that to happen, law enforcement authorities need to nave sufíicient independence and financia! and human resources.

In addition, the playing field must be levelled both on the supply side and the demand side of transnational corruption. Cases in which a company and/or an individual are punished for having bribed a foreign public official must be accompanied by the investigation and prosecution of the foreign public official in question.

We also must become more sophisticated in our analysis of the drivers and methods of corruption. Professionals like lawyers, accountants and auditors need to be much more aware of the risks they face when advising in international business transactions. Ratings agencies should include corruption risks in their analysis of companies (as far as ! know only one has done so - Fitch).7

Official development assistance and export credit agencies should also minimise the risks of corruption, Invesíment Funds and Sovereign Wealth Funds should also take "gross corruption" risks into account. NGOs should also keep the pressure.

Last but not leasí, International Organisations need to establish a common visión and a common agenda on the way forward. The OECD will keep working hard to strengthen and broaden its work on anti-corruption. We will keep bringing the síakeholders together to inclusive multilateral events, such as the second OECD Annual Integrity Week which will take place in París in mid-March and to which you are all invited. OECD BETTER LIFE INiTIATIVE

The OECD Better Life Initiative aims to promote "Better Policies for Better Lives", in une with the OECD's overarching mission. Launched by the Organisation in 2011, the Initiative has two major elements:

How's Ufe?, a report bringing together for the first time internationally comparable measures of well-being in line with recommendations from the Stiglrtz-Sen-Fítoussi Cornmission in 2009. The report assesses 11 specific aspects of well-being- housing, íncome, Jobs, community, education, environment, civic engagement, health, life satisfaction, safety and work-üfe balance, and two cross- cutting dimensions, sustainability and inequalities- as part of the OECD's on-going effort to devise new measures for assessing well-being that go beyond Gross Domestic Product (GDP).

Better Life Index (BU), an online tool that encourages the public to measure well-being according to what is important to them. The interactive composite Índex of well-being aims at involving citizens in the debate on societal progress. Visitors to the site are ¡nvited to rate each of the 11 topics, creating a personal lens through which to measure and compare well-being- The resulting visualisation provides a unique view of how countries perform according to the prioritíes individuáis themselves set. The feedback provided by users offers a fresh perspective from which to evalúate public policy and its implementation.

The OECD Better Life Initiative: • Helps to inform policy making to improve quality of life. • Connects policies to people's lives. • Genérate support for needed policy measures. • Improves civic engagement by encouraging the public to créate their own Índex and share their preferences. • Empowers the public by ¡mproving their understanding of polícy-making. HOW'S LIFE IN CHILE?

Chile has made tremendous progress over the last decade in terms of Housing improving the quaüty of Ufe of its citizens, Since the 1990s, the country has 3.5 seen a track record of robust growth and poverty reduction..Notwithstandíng, Chile ranks low ¡n a large number of topics relativa to most other countries in I the Setter Life índex (Figure 1). Income Income: In Chile, the average household net-adjusted disposable income ¡s 11 0.6 039 USD a year, much less trian the OECD average of 23 047 USD a year. But there is a considerable gap between the nchest and poorest - the top 20% pf the population earn 1 3 times as much as the bottorn 20%. Jobs Jobs: !n terms of ernployment, over 61 % of people aged 1 5 to 64 in Chile have 4.S a paid Job, below the OECD employment average of 66%. Some 74% of men are in paid work, compared with 49% of women. People in Chile work 2 047 hours a year, more than the OECD average of 1 776 hours. Some 16% of Community employees work very long hours, more than the OECD average of 9%, with 20% of men working very long hours compared with ¡ust 1 0% for women.

Education: In Chile, 71 % of adults aged 25-64 have earned the equivalent of a high-school degree, below the OECD average of 74%. There is little difference Education between men and women, as 72% of men have successfully completed high- 4.0 school compared with 71% of women. In terms of education quality, the average student ¡n Chile scored 439 in reading literacy, maths and science in I the OECD's Programme for International Student Assessment (PISA). This Environment score is lower than the OECD average of 497. On average in Chile, girls outperformed boys by 3 points, less than the average OECD gap of 9 points. i . ' . • . • Health and Environment: In terms of health, Ufe expectancy at birth ¡n Chile is almost 78 years, two years lower than the OECD average of 80 years. Life Cívic engagement expectancy for women is 81 years, compared with 76 for men. The level of 4.4 aímospheric PM10 - tiny air pollutant partióles smal! enough to enter and cause damage to the lungs «is 53 micrograms per cubic meter, considerably I higher than the OECD average of 22 micrograms per cubic meter. Chile could perform better in terms of water quality, as 77% of people say they are Health satisfied with the quality of their water, lower than the OECD average of 84%. 5.7

Community and public engagement: Concerning the public sphere, there is a I modérate sense of community and high levéis of civic participation in Chile, Life Satisfaction where 82% of people believe that they know someone they could rely on in time of need, slightly lower than the OECD average of 90%. Voter turnout, a 5.9 measure of public trust in government and of citizens' participation in the I political process, was 88% during recent elections; higher than the OECD average of 72%. There is little difference in voíing levéis across society; voter Safety íurnout for the top 20% of the population is 90% and for the bottorn 20% it ¡s 5.3 92%, much narrower than the OECD average gap of 12' percentage points. I Life Satísfaction: In general; Chüeans are less satisfied with their Uves than the OECD average, with 77% of people saying they have more positive Work-Life Balance experiences in an average day (feelings of rest, pride in accompüshment, 5.4 enjoyment, etc) than negative ones (paín, worry, sadness, boredom, etc). This figure is lower than the OECD average of 80%. .
