Perhaps the survey's biggest surprise is the second place awarded to France, a country often regarded as a bastion of anti-capitalist sentiment. The EVCA notes “remarkable improvements” in the way French laws and taxes treat its members in the past four years. Pension funds and insurance companies can invest freely in private equity, fund-management fees are exempt from value-added tax, and tax breaks targeting private-equity and venture capital encourage investment in companies that the state deems to be especially “innovative”. But the benefits are not evenly spread: foreign investors in France miss out on some advantages that domestic investors enjoy. The advantages are also partly offset by high taxes on capital gains (which hurt investors) and on incomes (which sting well paid fund managers).
