Presentation

Peter Koerver Schmidt is Professor in Tax Law with particular emphasis on Danish and International Corporate Tax Law.

Peter is an active member of CBS LAW’s Forum for Tax Law.

In addition, Peter is a member of two cross-disciplinary research groups formed under the auspices of the Department of Business Humanities and Law:

  1. Research Group on Social, Legal and Technology Studies (JURASOC).
  2. Research Group on Social and Technological Venturing.
Primary research areas

In recent years, Peter’s research has mainly focused on four distinct yet interconnected areas within the field of international tax law. All four areas are currently placed on the very top of the political agenda, and the potential for research impact is significant:

  • The mitigation of aggressive tax planning and tax avoidance.
  • EU Tax Law.
  • The challenges caused by the increasing digitalization of the economy and business models.
  • Tax justice and taxation as a legal tool to mitigate inequality.

This research has mainly been published in international journals recognized within the area of tax law.
