Le géant américain de la restauration rapide McDonald’s a accepté de payer 1,25 milliard d’euros d’amende en France pour éviter des poursuites pénales pour fraude fiscale dans le cadre d’un accord validé par la justice française.
Under an agreement approved Thursday by a Paris court, McDonald’s will pay 1.25 billion euros in France to avoid a legal case over tax evasion between 2009 and 2020.
Judge Stephane Noel confirmed the second-biggest tax settlement in French history, made up of a €508 million fine and €737 million in back taxes already agreed in May, years after McDonald’s was accused of reporting artificially low profits to reduce its tax bill. LINK TO ARTICLE
