WILLEMSTAD, Curacao -- The Netherlands Antilles and Mexico have signed a tax agreement which spells out a framework under which both nations will exchange information on tax matters in order to prevent tax fraud, financing of terrorism and money laundering.

State Secretary of Finance of the Netherlands Antilles Alex Rosaria and Mexican Finance Minister Augustín Cartens signed the agreement Tuesday in Mexico City just before the start of the 5th Meeting of the Global Forum on Transparency and Exchange of Information.

On September 10, the Netherlands Antilles is scheduled to sign six new exchange treaties with various Nordic Countries as well as a protocol to amend a double taxation agreement with Norway. After that date, the Netherlands Antilles will be considered a white-listed country as it will have substantially implemented the OECD standard on exchange of information.
