Natural geography, firm location and the corporation tax debate
journal contribution
posted on 2016-12-07, 15:06 authored by Julia Darby, Ben FerrettBen Ferrett, Ian WootonIn this article we describe our ongoing research to investigate the impact of geography on firms' location
decisions. This work allows us to comment on a key current policy debate, by assessing whether
independent control over corporation tax offers an effective lever for a nation (e.g. Scotland) to offset
aspects of geographic disadvantage when competing against other nations within Europe to attract foreign direct inward investment.
