Blurbpoint Now Offering Innovative SEO Services to Beat Online Competition

THE Australian Taxation Office and federal law enforcement
agencies want to intensify their campaign against offshore tax
evasion, with increased penalties and greater powers for
investigators expected to be considered by the federal
government this year.

Documents released under freedom-of-information laws reveal the
Tax Office and other agencies participating in the long-running
Project Wickenby, an inter-agency task force targeting offshore
tax evasion, have been developing a comprehensive range of
measures to combat abuse of "secrecy havens" - countries with
secretive tax or financial systems and which offer minimal
taxes for non-residents.

The ATO is seeking the introduction of measures to stem tax
evasion before funding for Project Wickenby expires next year.

Documents released by the Attorney-General's Department show
the ATO has convened a series of meetings and workshops to
develop tax reform proposals with the Australian Crime
Commission, the Australian Federal Police, the Commonwealth
Director of Public Prosecutions, the Australian Securities and
Investments Commission, the anti-money laundering agency
AUSTRAC, the Treasury and the departments of the
Attorney-General, and Immigration and Citizenship.

New anti-tax avoidance measures being developed include
improved information flows between Australian government
agencies such as better sharing of information obtained through
the use of coercive powers like those exercised by the
Australian Crime Commission; greater use of telecommunications
interception powers; expanding the definition of money in
anti-money laundering laws; greater information exchanges with
foreign governments; strengthened international debt recovery
measures and reciprocal recognition of foreign tax debts.

The Project Wickenby agencies have also been considering
increased penalties for offshore tax evasion; measures aimed at
"addressing delays around legal professional privilege";
amendments to immigration requirements to ''consider failure to
comply with tax obligations'', and greater regulation of
trusts.

A number of "defensive measures" were canvassed in a submission
by Treasury to federal cabinet on May 16 last year. Further
reform proposals were forecast for submission to cabinet late
last year or early this year, with the Treasury and
Attorney-General's Department potentially making a joint
submission.

However, the Attorney-General's Department has declined to
release the detailed policy proposals, saying: "The finer
details of these law reform proposals have not yet been put to
ministers; there have been no major public announcements on
this subject, and the issues are still at the very preliminary
stages of policy development … Full disclosure would … run
contrary to the interests of good government."

Since 2006, Project Wickenby has resulted in 62 people being
charged with serious tax avoidance, money laundering and fraud.
Twenty-one people have been convicted, although the taskforce
has had setbacks, including the abortive legal pursuit of the
actor Paul Hogan.

Nearly $594 million in outstanding tax revenue has been
recovered, while $1.18 billion in tax liabilities has been
raised.

Since 2007-08 there has been a 22 per cent reduction, about $22
billion, in funds flowing from Australia to 13 overseas
"secrecy havens".

There has been a decline in fund flows of 50 per cent to
Vanuatu, 80 per cent to Liechtenstein, and 22 per cent to
Switzerland.

By 2012-13, Project Wickenby operations will have cost $430.9
million.

The Assistant Treasurer, Mark Arbib, confirmed yesterday that a
"multi-agency working group" was working on further measures
aimed at cracking down on illegal offshore tax evasion.

THE Australian Tax office is pushing for more powers to
investigate secret tax havens as well as increased penalties
for offshore tax evasion.

Documents released under freedom of information reveal that the
Tax Office and other law enforcement agencies participating in
Project Wickenby, an inter-agency taskforce targeting offshore
tax evasion, have been quietly developing a comprehensive raft
of new measures to combat abuse of ''secrecy havens'' -
overseas countries with secretive tax or financial systems that
offer minimal taxes for non-residents.

The Tax Office wants the new measures to stem tax evasion
introduced before funding for Project Wickenby expires in 2013
and they are expected to be considered by the federal
government this year.

''We make no apologies for pursuing those who deliberately
evade tax through elaborate schemes,'' he said. ''They are not
just defrauding the government, they are defrauding all
Australians. The government continually consults our
enforcement agencies to improve and strengthen their ability to
catch those who use offshore jurisdictions to avoid tax.''

New crackdown on offshore tax evasion

Australian bankers are among the most anxious in the world,
with their worry levels at record highs as they believe the
world is teetering on a fresh financial crisis, a report finds.

The Banking Banana Skins 2012 report found Australian financial
industry participants reported anxiety levels of 3.28 out of
five, compared to 3.15 for the rest of the world.

It was a record global anxiety level in the 13-year history of
the report by the Centre for the Study of Financial Information
and Pricewaterhouse Coopers (PwC).

The study found an acute sense of vulnerability among
Australian bankers as they believed they were at the mercy to
overseas events largely beyond their control.

However, PwC banking and capital markets leader Stuart Scoular
said Australian banks were well positioned to capitalise on any
weakness in the global environment.

Australian respondents felt more confident about handling the
risks than the global average and fresh ructions to global
banking could open a window for Australian banks to expand
offshore, he said.

The poll of more than 700 bankers, regulators and industry
observers globally (18 Australian) found that the top risk in
2012 was the state of the world economy caused by the threat of
sovereign default by several European nations.

The next biggest issues were credit risks and liquidity.

Australian survey respondents differed, rating political
interference their second biggest risk; emerging market
concerns ninth compared with 22nd globally and a high
dependence on technology rated at six here compared with 18th
globally.

Mr Scoular said Australians were less pre-occupied with capital
availability and corporate governance while technology
dependence had crept higher.

'This relates to the fact that many Australian banks continue
with significant system infrastructure projects, with any
delivery-related issues potentially having a significant
impact, not only on customers, but also the banks' reputation,'
he said.

Australian respondents resented new banking rules they said
were unjust and designed to curb behaviours that were never a
problem for the Australian system.

The extra burden caused new costs at a time when banks were
trying to trim costs to cope with headwinds battering revenue
growth, Mr Scoular said.

More than 3000 banks jobs have already been slashed from the
sector, with ANZ recently flagging it would shed hundreds more
positions.

Globally, the European debt crisis is the most obvious concern
but there is also lingering unease over emerging markets -
China's growth in particular - and whether it could continue to
act as a counterbalance to the weakness weighing on much of the
developed world.

Mr Scoular said that although China remained a global growth
engine, strains were building domestically including the threat
of asset price bubbles, an undercapitalised banking system and
lack of regulation.
