Book excerpt: This book sheds light on the complexity of the environment in which the BEPS Project operates. It contrasts the commands of the modified nexus approach (BEPS Action 5) with those of EU law, WTO law and international investment agreements. Though it is clear that, as soft law, the Actions of the BEPS Project should remain within the limits established by hard law, the book identifies several instances in which this line has been crossed by the modified nexus approach.0 0This conflict between hard and soft law frameworks is treated as analogous to the notion of fragmentation of international law and, against this backdrop, the book proposes that the notion of institutional dialogue could help build a pathway for a more productive relationship between these frameworks.
