##### Featuring 

Featuring **Dan Mitchell**, Senior Fellow, Cato Institute; **David Burton**, Senior Fellow, Heritage Foundation; and **Ike Brannon**, Senior Fellow, George W. Bush Institute, and President, Capital Policy Analytics; moderated by **John Maniscalco**, Director of Congressional Affairs, Cato Institute. 

Motivated by the world’s highest corporate tax rate and an aggressive form of worldwide taxation, several American companies are engaging in cross-border mergers to find tax jurisdictions with better policies. The Cato Institute will host a panel of experts on August 26 to discuss appropriate public policy responses to corporate inversions.
