Grenada
A. Progress in the implementation of the minimum standard
Grenada has four tax agreements in force as reported in its response to the Peer Review questionnaire, including the multilateral agreement among the members of the CARICOM concluded with ten treaty partners (the CARICOM Agreement). 1 None of those agreements comply with the minimum standard.
Grenada has not signed the MLI. In its response to the Peer Review questionnaire, Switzerland indicated that its agreement with Grenada did not give rise to material treaty shopping concerns for Switzerland.
B. Conclusion
The CARICOM Agreement does not at this stage comply with the minimum standard and discussions to bring this agreement up to date should be contemplated.2
Other agreements
This Table shows the agreements that are not compliant, not subject to a complying instrument, not covered by a general statement on the implementation of the detailed LOB and for which no steps have been taken to implement the minimum standard.
