Volume 21: 2024 pp. 219-230: ABSTRACT
This teaching case focuses on tax shelters for audiovisual works. Since its inception in 2003, the Belgian tax shelter
system has undergone substantial reforms to make the system more ethical and reduce risks for investors. The necessity
to reform the system was in part highlighted by a fraud that affected over 1,200 investors. Students take on the role
of a business owner contemplating an investment in the Belgian tax shelter. The case challenges students to discuss the
ethics of tax shelters, identify risks for investors and make an investment decision.
Keywords: tax ethics, tax shelters, film financing
