Abstract
This paper articulates and, using newly-assembled data, explores how international taxationaffects aggregate tangible cross-border investment.Spillovers from statutory tax rates abroad seem: As sizable as effects from the host’s rate; larger than previousconsensus values (attributed to a systematic bias from FDI data); and consistent with ‘implicit’ profit shiftingthrough real investment (rather than ‘paper’ profit shifting). Contrary to much policy discussion, the resultsalso imply that: Host countries’ marginal effective tax rates have at best a weak effect on real investment; thoseelsewhere have none; and, applied to the prospective global minimum tax, inward tangible investment in most samplecountries will increase.
