Taxation is an increasingly important determinant for enterprises in their decision-making processes on where and how to invest. Incentives and disincentives created by tax systems affect the behavior of multinational enterprises. Nonetheless, economic considerations are taken into account as well in the decision-making process on whether, where and how to invest. Students acquire in-depth knowledge in the key areas of international business tax economics. They learn to understand how tax and economic considerations interrelate. A Tilburg University Master's degree in International Business Tax Economics (IBTE) offers you: * A unique focus on concepts and principles underlying tax systems worldwide, instead of focusing on the tax system of one country only * The key competencies necessary for a successful career including the ability to gather, process, and analyze information and communicate the results in an effective way. * An outstanding foundation for a future career.
