Corporate Tax Avoidance
Tax havens, postbox companies and offshore structures (20.09.05)
In April 2004, the Berne Declaration strongly criticized Winterthur-based coffee trading company VOLCAFE for its use of an offshore structure. Since VOLCAFE conducted some business activities through the Jersey-based subsidiary, any profits arising from those transactions were not subject to taxation. Three months later VOLCAFE dismantled the controversial postbox company.
