That's pretty average (which is a good thing).

Japan: 20%

China: 20%

India: 13%

UK: 24%

Italy: 26%

Germany: 26%

France: 30%

Then there's Canada of course... 50% with a proposal to make it 66% in 2026. Let's see how that works out!



Isn't it a 50% inclusion rate for capital gains in Canada? That works out to a maximum tax rate of 27% in the top tax bracket. And they canceled the proposed increase to a 66% inclusion rate, which is probably smart considering how a ton of rich Canadians already move to Florida.


Thank you for the correction.


Yes that's correct.


You should include state taxes, which in CA's case tops at 13.3% and 3.8% NII, bringing the total to 37.1%.


Not that increasing taxes on capital gains is the way to go, but America's wealthy aren't going to move to China or India.
