针对JBS公司的决定,爱尔兰财政部一名发言人表示“爱尔兰并不鼓励此类交易。我们需要的是真正海外直接投资,那种可以创造就业的实质性投资。”
由于公司总部将设于英国,因此巴西食品公司JBS并不会享有爱尔兰12.5%的低企业税率。爱尔兰经济学家吉姆。鲍尔(Jim Power)更把JBS公司将母公司转移爱尔兰视为“坏消息”。
部分原文报道如下:
Dublin (AFP) - Brazil's JBS, the world's biggest meat company, has said it will move its headquarters to Ireland but Irish officials reacted dismissively to the announcement on Wednesday, saying it would not bring jobs and investment.
The plans announced this month by JBS, which will reportedly see more than 30 billion euros' ($34 billion) worth of its assets being shifted to Ireland on paper, make it the latest to take advantage of Ireland's favourable corporate tax rate.
“Ireland does not encourage such transactions. Ireland does not encourage the location of brass-plate operations,” an Irish finance ministry spokesman told AFP.
“We only have and want real substantive FDI (Foreign Direct Investment) -- the kind that brings real jobs and investment into Ireland,” he said.
