Global tax transparency didn’t happen overnight—it began with a bold statement from G20 leaders in 2009 to end bank secrecy. That declaration set the stage for the Exchange of Information on Request (EOIR) standard, empowering tax authorities to access key financial data, accounting records, and even beneficial ownership details tied to assets like real estate.
In this episode, we explore how the movement toward transparency has evolved, and how India’s persistent advocacy has pushed the conversation even further. Building on years of requests, the G20 in 2023 officially recommended expanding the Automatic Exchange of Information (AEOI) to include property and related recurring income—a major shift in global tax governance.
