This paper documents how available data to document these IP flows are distorted by various factors, including tax planning by multinational enterprises. It finds that tax-induced mismeasurement could be more than 35%, and greater for individual countries particularly high-tax-rate countries.}, doi = {https://doi.org/10.34667/tind.29019}, recid = {29019}, pages = {60 pages ;}, }
