## Definition

Individual territories - e.g. Estonia - of a larger economic area - e.g. the EU - set their tax rates for individuals or companies very low, or even forgo taxation altogether for a certain period of time. The aim of the measure is to promote the corresponding settlements. As a rule, it is expected that in the long run the current losses will be compensated by later tax payments of the attracted parties. - See tax haven, tax-cutting race.
