Bahamas Signs Multilateral Agreement for the Exchange of Tax information

The OECD has expressed its satisfaction with the Bahamas’ decision to move from a bilateral agreement for the exchange of tax information in compliance with CRS (Common Reporting Standards) to a multilateral one.

Although the CRS allows for a jurisdiction to select to enter either a bilateral agreement or a multilateral agreement, many international and supranational organizations –oddly even the OECD itself, which authored the standards- have expressed discontent with bilateral agreements.
