Tax payer action that reduces the taxable profit in a jurisdiction by shifting it to a jurisdiction where it will be taxed at a lower rate or not taxed at all.  
A legal entity established to facilitate restricted transactions or purposes for a particular sponsor or sponsors, often characterised by severely limited independence of decision making and a relatively small capital base.


This is generally seen by tax authorities as potentially abusive, even if legal.


An SPE used for a securitisation is known as a securitisation special purpose entity (SSPE).
