GILTI, or Global Intangible Low-Taxed Income, is a provision in the U.S. tax code that targets income earned by foreign subsidiaries of U.S. corporations which exceeds a certain threshold. It was introduced as part of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 to discourage companies from shifting profits to low-tax jurisdictions and promote repatriation of foreign earnings. GILTI essentially imposes a minimum tax on foreign income, influencing corporate tax strategies and the location of intangible assets.
