Impact of crisis for tax conditions in Russian companies’ debt financing

Annotation

We study the impact of tax law restrictions on the amount of interest on debt, which can reduce base of the corporate profit tax. We analyze changes in the tax environment of financing in Russia in 2002-2015. Tax limitation and market level of interest on borrowed funds were related. It is concluded that the refinancing rate, which is used in various areas of taxation, poorly reflects the level of market interest rates. The difference between the refinancing rate and the market interest rate is especially evident with the onset of the financial crisis. The most significant was the difference between the market interest rates on loans in foreign currency (US dollars and euros) and the corresponding tax limitations. The abolition of interest rates’ control for tax purposes between independent entities offsets the negative impact of the pre-2015 tax legislation. It requires the use of critical thinking about using the refinancing rate in other areas of taxation
