Germany Reviews Inheritance Tax Exemptions for Business Heirs
Germany's Federal Constitutional Court is reviewing whether special inheritance tax exemptions for business assets violate equal treatment principles. A man who inherited €250,000 in securities and property faced a 20% tax. Business assets can get up to 85% exemption, or 100% under strict conditions. Critics say this favors wealthy heirs, while businesses argue it protects jobs and investments.
