Kyle Clauss reports for Boston Magazine on an algorithm, created by MIT researchers, which can detect efforts by corporations to evade taxes. “The findings are a promising development in the ongoing struggle against tax evasion of the most sophisticated sort,” writes Clauss.
Boston Business Journal’s Mary Moore writes that, “A researcher from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology’s Sloan School of Management has measured the billions of dollars in tax payments that U.S taxpayers are avoiding, using offshore accounts and through an investment scheme known as ‘round tripping’.”
NPR’s Jim Zarroli reports on new MIT research that explores how tax evasion techniques like round-tripping can hurt the U.S. economy.
