At face value, Brazil’s international tax policy has often looked contradictory in recent years. They adopted OECD standard transfer pricing (TP), then - as if returning to their previous TP policy - argued in support of OECD TP reform under Pillar 1 (P1) and Amount B through fixed margins and more returns for source countries (https://lnkd.in/ebvZj5Sq). They are on the road to OECD accession, only to argue for UN taking over the reigns as main international tax forum. They pushed the idea of a billionaire tax on the G20 agenda, then came out in favour of UN’s very different wealth tax proposals (https://lnkd.in/eFwXSX8M). But beneath the surface, there’s a lot more logic to it. Brazil used to stick closely to its own tax policy preferences, even if those differed from how the rest of the world designed their tax system. They slowly transitioned to more international alignment, but then tried to change international standards from within to align better with their preferences. Politics matters too, as the previous administration’s free market approach fitted better with the existing international standards (even though they didn’t favour international cooperation in general). Now that Brazil has firmly established itself as current G20 leader, a full OECD member and leading advocate for the UN tax role, it is playing a delicate balancing act knowing that many of their preferred policy outcomes are unlikely to be achieved. P1 is now “set to fail” (https://lnkd.in/es8SNyj7), Amount B’s outcome was somewhat disappointing (https://lnkd.in/eweh_h-8), the billionaire tax is very unlikely to get G20 support given the US public disapproval (https://lnkd.in/edGcXYz5) and the UN is lingering a bit on tax (https://lnkd.in/eFwXSX8M). Although that is all disappointing for Brazil, it was hardly surprising. But as a long game, Brazil has been very successful in getting all these topics on the international agenda. It was always unlikely that their specific proposals would be accepted, but now that these ideas are out there, they’ll likely keep circulating. So therefore, it makes sense to back policy proposals that directionally align with long term goals, even those proposals on details do not add up to a coherent position. This creates a chance some proposal that is a bit like something they want might eventually get accepted. So, as in this song (https://lnkd.in/eghcmshc), Brazilian policy moves are a dance intended to provoke a reaction. Brazil is not unique in following this tactic, it’s common in politics. But Brazil has recently been more successful than most in setting the agenda. And given where they were coming from, that itself is already impressive. Obvious disclaimers: this is not advice. These views are my own and do not necessarily represent my employer.

To my non-Slovenian speaking friends: what you need to know about Slovenia (by Mateja Malnar Štembal): - Slovenia is a sports superpower. According to the number of inhabitants, Slovenia is one of the most successful countries in international competitions, and in the Olympic Games we occupy the 1st place in terms of success per capita. - Slovenia, which occupies less than 0.2 percent of the total area of Europe, has approximately 24 thousand animal and plant species, more than 37 percent of Slovenia's surface is included in the Natura 2000 network, approximately 60 percent of Slovenia's surface is covered with forests. - Slovenian men and women are among the most satisfied in the EU with the amount of free time, and 93 percent of the population is satisfied with life in Slovenia. - About 90 percent of households in Slovenia have access to high-quality drinking water directly from the tap. - In the area of 25 New Yorks, we have 24 gastronomic regions and three wine-growing countries and more than 400 typical local and regional dishes and drinks. - There are slightly more than ten thousand beekeepers in Slovenia, or almost five per thousand inhabitants. - We are polyglots, as 96 percent of adults understand or use at least one foreign language, and a quarter at least five. - On a global scale, we are the leader in the number of tractors - one in seventeen has one. - In Slovenia, they found the oldest preserved wooden wheel, 5,200 years old, and the oldest Neanderthal bone flute, 50 to 60 thousand years old, which indicates a long musical tradition in this area. Perhaps this is also why Avsenik's piece Na golici is the most played instrumental piece of the 20th century. https://lnkd.in/dgYd6YT7

Expectations, expectations, expectations 🌱 And then desilusion because we still depend on somebody, or something. Why don't we rely just on ourself ? We can learn to rely on ourself and don't expect it from others or other things. It is a skill, so needed. Inspiration 🌱 Psychology 💚 Mindset #englishwithmoni
Přílišná očekávání od druhých, nevyřčené "měl/a by" nás mohou uvrhnout do zklamání, do neochvějného pozoru, který nás vyčerpává. Jak to máte s očekáváními?

Corruption is a bad thing, no matter what government is in power or what level of society it is taking place, be it in high politics or seeking for “special treatment” on local municipalities. One can choose to actively fight it, or, if not feeling completely up to it, at least support organisations, which have a positive track record in doing so. I choose to support #stopcorruptionfundation
* Menej korupcie znamená lepší život pre väčšinu ľudí na Slovensku * Držím nám palce, nech slušnosť a čestnosť nie sú považované za slabosti.
Boj proti korupcii nevzdávame. Pomôžte nám pokračovať.

Vrijeme je za Sedmice sudske nagodbe i brže i jeftinije rješavanje sporova. Od 6. do 17. novembra 2023. godine, u svim prvostepenim i drugostepenim sudovima u BiH, bit će održane sedmice sudske nagodbe tokom kojih stranke na brži i ekonomičniji način mogu riješiti svoje sporove. Riječ je o načinu rješavanja sporova koji je naročito pogodan u predmetima naplate komunalnih i sličnih usluga male vrijednosti, radnih sporova, isplate dugova i naplate novčanih potraživanja, naknade štete, podjele stvari i nekretnina u zajedničkom vlasništvu, i drugo. Zaključena sudska nagodba ima istu pravnu snagu kao i sudska presuda, a stranke i sud su pošteđeni brojnih dodatnih troškova redovnog sudskog postupka. Važno je naglasiti da stranke sudsku nagodbu mogu sklopiti i mimo Sedmica sudske nagodbe. Sedmice sudske nagodbe organizuju se na inicijativu VSTV-a BiH koji uz podršku Evropske unije provodi aktivnosti usmjerene na promociju i zagovaranju veće upotrebe sudske nagodbe. Više informacija o sudskoj dostupno je na: https://lnkd.in/dm7TAQfW

Last year, most forward-thinking Lithuanian businesses got focused on improving their online reputations. Today, standing out from the competition is all about the fine details. "Online reputation leaders Hostinger were communicating strategically and had a lot of hero content. One of the things that made them outshine the competition were tons of positive customer reviews on diverse channels," explains our Head of Analytics Rugilė Ereminaitė. Another important way to distinguish themselves is to cover multiple communication narratives, including leadership, customer success, innovation, ESG, business success, and employer branding. Rugile notes that covering multiple narratives helped brands such as Lidl Lietuva and UAB „Investicijų ir verslo garantijos“ (INVEGA). Mykolas Katkus adds "Once businesses notice the key narratives that shape their brands, they can use them to solidify and form strong online reputations. In other words, it becomes a precise success recipe for talking about topics that truly matter." Read more in the article on Verslo žinios:
🏆 Hostinger pirminės paieškos rodiklis netgi viršija 70 balų. Analizuodami įmonių reputaciją internete, tikrai labai retai matome tokius skaičius, – vertina Rugilė Ereminaitė. – Be to, bendrovė turi ir gerus atsiliepimų reitingus skirtinguose kanaluose, o tai dažnai pakiša koją kitiems verslams“. 🎯 Kita šiemetinio Repsense tyrimo lyderė – Lidl Lietuva, kuriai tyrėjai skiria „Metų taikliausios online komunikacijos“ titulą. 🎲 „Metų online reputacijos“ titulas viešajame segmente 2024 m. tenka UAB „Investicijų ir verslo garantijos“ (INVEGA).
