Given many domestic tax regimes permit gains and losses to be deferred on intra-group transfers, Article 6.3.2 of the OECD Model Rules include a similar rule which applies where there is a ‘GloBE Reorganisation’.

(a) the consideration for the transfer is, in whole or in significant part, equity interests
(b) the transferors gain or loss on the assets is not wholly or partly subject to tax; and
