Hvis der er tale om en fordel, finder Nederlandene subsidiært, at den mulige nettofordel for multinationale koncerner ikke skyldes en lavere nederlandsk sats for modtagne koncernrenter, men derimod det ubegrænsede fradrag af betalte koncernrenter i udlandet.
Alternatively, if there is indeed an advantage, the Netherlands is of the opinion that the possible net advantage to multinational groups is the result not of a lower Dutch rate for intra-group interest received, but of unlimited deduction for intra-group interest paid abroad.
