– If Røkke lives abroad for five years, he will in practice be tax-free – Latest news – news

12 September 2022 at 13:21 Tax professor: – If Røkke lives abroad for five years, he will in practice be tax-free Businessman and Aker owner Kjell Inge Røkke is moving from Asker to Lugano in Switzerland. Røkke himself reports that today. Tax professor Guttorm Schjelderup at NHH believes it is plausible to believe that Røkke is reporting the move now to avoid paying tax on the assets he has accumulated. – If he lives abroad for five years, he becomes practically tax-free. So Røkke probably knows that work will be done to close this tax hole, so that one will have to be evicted for far more than five years. It is therefore beneficial to move out now. He thinks that several rich people may end up doing as Røkke did. – Many who have large fortunes are aware that work is being done to close the five-year rule, so that it will be more difficult to move out. For those considering this, it is now or never.
