Hamilton, Bermuda: Minister of Finance the Honourable E.T. Bob Richards today announces that last week Bermuda signed its Declaration to the Multilateral Competent Authority Agreement for the exchange of Country by Country Reports (“CbC”) after a long period of consultation with industry which began last year. In doing so, Bermuda adopts the OECD's CbC reporting regime, applicable to multinational enterprises ("MNEs"). 

The Government published the Airport Development Agreement (ADA) on the parliamentary website last year. More recently, much has been made about the absence of specific schedules from the published material.

The schedules include commercially sensitive information that we cannot release while we are still in negotiations with CCC and Aecon. Parts of the ADA, which I signed last summer, bind us to keep such sensitive information confidential. This is for the benefit of all parties concerned.

Here you will find information relating to the 2016/2017 Budget.
