A business is often funded (or capitalized) through a combination of debt and equity.
The taxation of the digital economy was first on the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) list of 15 Base Erosion and Profit Shifting (BEPS) Action items. BEPS Action Plan 1 was announced in 2013 in which it had partially addressed the challenges that would be faced by the digital economy.
