Almost all countries like to attract business and investors. But most of them don’t want to lower the overall tax rate. So they choose for specific facilities that will attract business of a certain industry or sector, but will have no massive consequences on the tax revenue.

Jurisdictions have been long aware of the opportunities that exist when using a special low tax regime. Many jurisdictions around the globe, among them high tax countries, introduced favourable regimes that boosted their economy.
A good example is The Netherlands, which has established a good reputation as holding country, by introducing the participation exemption as one of the first countries of the world, and signing Tax Treaties with many other countries.

Although The Netherlands is a high tax country, it has a large financial centre, with over 100 corporate service providers, which annually process over 1400 billion dollar of transactions.
