Live Q&A: What does the G7 tax deal mean for multinational companies?

The G7 countries have reached a landmark agreement on corporate tax reform, agreeing to a minimum rate of tax for multinational companies.

The deal between the US, Japan, Germany, France, UK, Italy and Canada is aimed at stopping companies from shifting profits to low tax jurisdictions and ensuring the largest multinationals pay more tax where they operate.

But the amount of tax raised and which companies will be affected remains unclear.
