Peter Varga interviewed Marián Viskupič of SaS about their proposal for an Estonian-style tax

What if companies in Slovakia didn’t pay income tax as long as they kept their profits within the company and reinvested them?

The Estonian tax model is based precisely on this principle. According to SaS’s calculations, its implementation could leave approximately 2.5 billion euros in companies during the first few years. This would not be a tax waiver, but rather a deferral of the tax until the profit is paid out or otherwise distributed to the owners.

The guest on this episode of Highgate Talks is Marián Viskupič, vice chair of the Freedom and Solidarity (SaS) party. The interview is conducted by Peter Varga, a partner at Highgate Group.

In this discussion, you’ll learn:

Is the Estonian tax model a real game-changer for Slovakia, or does it represent too drastic an intervention in an unstable tax system? And can the government develop a reform that is simple, technically sound, and predictable?
