Financial data exchange for all governments
A global model of collaboration and public sector data exchange expertise
The success of the IRS IDES has had a profound effect on international collaboration
on tax reporting, and serves as a model for government tax administration
authorities in countries outside of the United States.
Foreign leaders have adopted similar programs to gather information on financial accounts held by their citizens in countries outside their own in order to ensure tax fairness and recover revenue.
Through mutual trust reciprocity agreements initiated by the FACTA program, and as
a government agency that has applied data integration in unique ways to build the
IDES system, the IRS is laying the groundwork for a more secure and cooperative
global community in pursuit of common goals.
