KPMG's Individual Income Tax Rate Survey 2008
KPMG’s International Executive Services practice has provided insights into personal tax trends by conducting their first cross-border survey with historical data from 2003 to 2008 in their new report, Individual Income Tax Rate Survey 2008.
The report looks at how people have been taxed in different parts of the world, and how different governments approach the difficult task of raising funds for necessary public services without the losing support of their citizens.
Covering 87 countries, the report concentrates on the highest level of personal tax payable to the central government. Of the 87 countries surveyed, 33 have cut their rates in the past six years and only seven have a higher top rate in 2008 than they did in 2003.

R&D incentives and services – adding value across ASPAC
Countries in the Asia Pacific (ASPAC) region are competing harder than ever before to attract companies wanting to undertake research and development (R&D) work, a new study from KPMG’s Global Research and Development Incentives Services practice has found.
To help KPMG member firms’ clients to see beyond national borders, the guide provides an easy-to-follow summary of the R&D policies of countries in the ASPAC region and how these policies are implemented. Given that many groups now operate in more than one location throughout the ASPAC region, it is clear that in order for groups to think beyond the present, a regular review of the relevant R&D tax regimes is of strategic importance for all large corporations.
