Some years back I read The Rise and Rise of Kerry Packer - great read and recommended.
In it, the author speaks of Kerry Packers' use of off-shore companies for tax relief - ie, Company ABC operates in the Bahamas, while XYZ operates in Australia.
Company XYZ makes $10m, so company ABC sends an invoice for $10m for "Advisory Services".
The $10m is declared as profit in The Bahamas, which has no corporate tax.
What legislation exists nowadays to prevent this from happening?
