Recently, the Shanghai Municipal Taxation Bureau of the State Administration of Taxation and Shanghai University of Finance and Economics officially signed a framework agreement for party building cooperation, further strengthening tax school cooperation and innovating to promote the deep integration of party building and business cooperation.
The cooperation framework agreement was jointly signed by Ma Wenwen, Secretary of the Party Committee and Director of the Shanghai Municipal Taxation Bureau of the State Administration of Taxation, and Liu Yuanchun, Deputy Secretary of the Party Committee and President of Shanghai University of Finance and Economics.
In 2022, in order to serve the construction of Shanghai's "four major functions" and "five centers", the Shanghai tax department has explored the establishment of eight industry research laboratories to conduct long-term tracking and macro analysis of industries such as finance, automobile, and medicine. This will provide think tank support for creating "high-level personalized service products", "high-quality risk analysis products", and "high-level economic analysis products" for Shanghai's large enterprise taxation, and promote the improvement and efficiency of tax service work for large enterprises.
Starting from this spring semester, the Third Taxation Branch of Shanghai Taxation Bureau, as the responsible unit of the Financial Industry Research Office, took the lead in cooperating with the School of Public Economics and Management of Shanghai University of Finance and Economics to carry out the "Xin Tax Research" activity. Relying on the compulsory course "Research on Tax Collection and Management" offered by the School of Public Administration of the University of Finance and Economics, tax officials entered the classroom, collaborated with teachers from the University of Finance and Economics to teach, and conducted research with tax master's and graduate students. They completed in-depth research on 10 tax hot topics in small groups. All projects were completed and submitted in June.
The model of tax school cooperation research is innovative, and the results of open teaching have exceeded the curriculum expectations. Taking the "Pre ruling System for Tax Governance of Large Enterprises" as an example, one of the 10 topics, the course team conducted visits and surveys to multiple large enterprises in Shanghai, distributed questionnaires, and adopted multiple opinions to come up with a preliminary process plan for pre ruling. They also studied the risks and legal issues of actual promotion, which has high practical value.
"Large enterprises attach great importance to tax risk prevention, and the pre ruling system can help them solve their worries and stabilize their business expectations." Dai Diyuan, the head of the Tax Service Department of the Third Taxation Bureau, introduced that since the first proposal of pre ruling in 2015 in the revised draft of the Tax Collection Management Law, tax authorities in various regions have explored and studied the legal status, scope of matters, and other institutional contents of pre ruling. Next, the Third Taxation Bureau will conduct pilot projects for large financial enterprises and explore the establishment and improvement of a pre judgment system for large enterprises through tax school cooperation research.
Yang Jing, Deputy Director of the Third Taxation Bureau, introduced that starting from the second half of the year, the research results of 10 topics will be implemented and transformed through various methods such as special reports and cases. Some research plans will be directly applied to improve tax service management measures. For example, as mentioned earlier, the tax authorities in Shanghai have issued survey questionnaires to 35 thousand household groups and listed large enterprises in advance for tax decisions of large enterprises. Based on the research topic, they will adjust feedback and continuously optimize it in combination with the opinions of more enterprises to promote the effectiveness of the research results. At the same time, the "Xin Tax Research" project will continue to be launched in the following semesters, and will gradually explore new models and fields of tax school cooperation, promoting the refinement and implementation of research in the tax collection and management industry and the continuous deepening of tax governance reform.
