(3) This political objective has been translated into the Global Anti-Base Erosion Model Rules (GloBE Model Rules) approved on 14 December 2021 by the OECD/G20 Inclusive Framework on BEPS to which Member States have committed. In the Council Conclusions of 7 December 20218 , the Council reiterated its firm support of the global minimum tax reform and committed to a swift implementation of the agreement by means of Union legislation. In this context, it is essential that Member States effectively implement their commitment to achieve a global minimum level of taxation, in order to ensure a fair tax competition in the international framework. _________________ 8 Council Conclusions 14767/21 of 7 December 2021

(4) In a Union of closely integrated economies, it is crucial that the global minimum tax reform is implemented in a sufficiently coherent and coordinated fashion. Considering the scale, detail and technicalities of those new international tax rules, only a common Union framework would prevent a fragmentation of the internal market in the implementation of them. Moreover, a common framework, designed to be compatible with the fundamental freedoms guaranteed by the Treaty, would provide taxpayers with legal certainty when implementing the rules. It is, therefore, essential to guarantee that Member States apply these provisions in an effective way and that the corporate taxation systems, after the necessary changes, can remain stable and certain, providing companies and taxpayers with certainty and long-term perspetives to promote investment, growth and jobs creation.
