He also pointed out that the new tax will help reduce the cost of long-term infrastructure investment, while reforming the US tax band will also help create jobs. However, Liondis did not disclose the tax rate, but it is estimated that the tax rate for profits from investment will be significantly increased from the current 20% to 39.6%.
