Non-cooperative jurisdictions

Being listed by the EU as a non-cooperative jurisdiction for tax purposes can significantly affect a country’s investment climate, access to capital and international standing.

Listing decisions are closely monitored by financial markets, development partners and multinational companies, often amplifying the economic impact well beyond the technical scope of the tax measures concerned.

We assist governments seeking removal from the EU list by combining technical alignment with OECD and EU standards and targeted political engagement.

Our work focuses on ensuring that reforms are not only implemented, but also correctly understood and recognised within the EU decision-making process.

We support engagement with the Code of Conduct Group, the European Commission and key Member State authorities, helping governments structure credible commitments, anticipate concerns and sequence reforms effectively.

In parallel, we provide strategic communications and reputational support to mitigate market impact and reposition tax reform as part of a broader commitment to transparency, cooperation and sustainable economic integration with the European Union.
