Dividend King estimated that the new proposals aimed at increasing the flat tax would mainly penalize small savers rather than the wealthiest. According to him, the latter would distribute very few dividends personally, transferring them from operating companies to holding companies, where the mother-daughter regime would allow them to exempt 95%. He added that there are other ways to benefit from funds held in a holding company without distributing dividends or salaries, without detailing them. He criticized the deputies behind these proposals, including Eric Coquerel, for confusing revenue and profit. According to him, the measures targeting Bernard Arnault in particular would penalize small savers who are building wealth through a PEA or a regular securities account (CTO). He finally estimated that a reduction of the flat tax to 15%, or even 10%, would lead to the exit of hundreds of billions of euros from holding companies. #Fiscalité #Économie #Patrimoine (translated)
