Publisher's Synopsis
This book deals with tax harmonization and financial integration in Europe. Both national perspectives and perspectives of the European Community are offered. In addition, a French, a German and an EFTA view of the state of economic integration in Europe are presented. The contributors were mostly chosen by the national economic associations thus guaranteeing the representativeness of views. Topics discussed in this book include indirect tax harmonization, cross-border shopping between Ireland and the UK, exchange controls, the European Monetary System and forthcoming structural changes in the European insurance industry.
