Robert Hynes is a Doctor of International Taxation

Robert has developed and managed international businesses, including World Sports, an elite sports management business and Rugbyweb, an elite rugby management and recruitment business.

Robert’s academic achievements include:

PhD (Law) Curtin MTax (Curtin) LLB (UQ) BSc( Political Science) Australian Rugby Union Coach (Level 3) Australian Amateur Athletics Sprints Coach (Level 2) Tax Institute Fellow, Registered Tax Agent, Taxation Specialist.

Robert competed in a number of sports and pursued a career as a sprints coach, rugby coach, and international sports manager for over 20 years.

During this period, he experienced first-hand the manipulation of the global corporate tax regime by a wide range of individual and other entities in order to avoid and/or minimise tax.

Research conducted by Dale and Robert over a period of eight (8) years resulted in an identification by them of the root cause of global tax avoidance by multinational entities.

They are firmly of the opinion that the only solution to the current complicated, convoluted, unjust, and ineffective global tax regime is to replace the current bilateral tax treaty regime with a multilateral taxation treaty.
