Conclusions; References; Appendix IGlobal economic integration intensified tax competition and raised concerns about the resulting ""race to the bottom"", which could undermine public investment and social spending. The aim of this paper is to test predictions that (i) there is interdependence in CIT rate setting in Eastern Europe and that (ii) the recent CIT cut in Moldova may intensify tax competition in the region. It finds that there is indeed evidence that during 1995-2006 countries in Eastern Europe strategically responded to changes in CIT rates in the region and that Moldovan zero CIT is likely to encourage further cutsIMF Working PapersCorporationsTaxationMoldovaCorporationsTaxationEurope, EasternTaxationMoldovaTaxationEurope, EasternElectronic books.CorporationsTaxationCorporationsTaxationTaxationTaxation336.243Piatkowski Marcin894043Jarmuzek Mariusz894044MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910463610203321Zero corporate income tax in Moldova1997108UNINA
