Gdf Suez in the sights of the European Commission. The French company, which since 2015 has changed its trade name to Engie, ended up at the center of an in-depth investigation into the tax treatment granted to it by Luxembourg.
The European Commission, in fact, would be trying to establish whether some "advance" decisions, such as the tax rule administration, have potentially given the company an "unjustified advantage over other companies in breach of EU state aid rules".
Gdf Suez is not the first company involved in investigations into possible tax benefits granted by Luxembourg: Starbucks and Apple among others.
