Malta draws U.S. companies seeking to reduce income taxes

The report says Malta has become a destination for U.S. firms to shield profits from income taxes.

The New York Times Business reports that Malta has grown into a tax haven for U.S. companies looking to reduce the income taxes they pay.

According to the outlet, the Mediterranean archipelago is attracting American businesses as a way to shield profits from income taxes, including for companies such as Crocs.

The piece frames Malta’s rise as part of a broader effort by U.S. firms to manage their tax exposure while operating internationally.
