Abstract

Der Beitrag untersucht die von der Europäischen Kommission 2016 im Entwurf für eine neue Richtlinie des Rates über eine gemeinsame Körperschaftsteuer-Bemessungsgrundlage vorgeschlagenen Regeln zum Abzug fiktiver Zinsen auf neu gebildetes Eigenkapital. Geprüft wird, ob hiermit die in den meisten Ländern der EU bestehende steuerliche Diskriminierung der Investitionsfinanzierung mit Eigenkapital beseitigt wird. Nach vereinfachten Investitionsrechnungen werden die Unternehmen dazu veranlasst, mehr eigenfinanzierte Investitionen zu tätigen. Mit einer gegenüber dem Kommissionsvorschlag modifizierten Bestimmung des steuerlich relevanten Eigenkapitals wird es möglich, die für die Harmonisierung der Bemessungsgrundlagen so bedeutsame Neutralität des steuerlichen Bewertungsrechts sowie eine steuerliche Gleichbehandlung unterschiedlicher Zeitverläufe von Investitionserträgen zu gewährleisten.
