To call it a loophole makes no sense to me.

Also, smarter policy would be like what Estonia does

- CIT should only be applicable when dividends are paid. So corporations can reinvest that money in the business and not be taxed on it.

- PIT on dividend income should be 0, since that amount has already been taxed(CIT) and the stock holder has paid his due share on that income as a owner of corporation.

>CIT should only be applicable when dividends are paid.

Or dividends should be taxed as normal income.

Dealing with capital gains tax is messier but not impossible.
