The aim of the OECD/IGF BEPS in Mining Programme is to strengthen the ability of resource-rich developing countries to maximise the benefits of their natural resources. The OECD Centre for Tax Policy and Administration partners with the Intergovernmental Forum on Mining, Minerals, Metals and Sustainable Development (IGF) to deliver the BEPS in Mining Programme. Combining their respective tax and mining expertise, the OECD and IGF equip resource-rich developing countries with the knowledge, skills, and tools to build and administer a robust mining tax system.
BEPS practices cost countries an estimated 100-240 USD billion in lost revenue annually, across all sectors. With a long list of Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) to finance, it is more important than ever that resource-rich developing countries ensure existing and future extractive projects contribute their full share to governments.
