The Group of Seven leading rich countries agreed to back new rules for taxing businesses that operate internationally in a significant step toward a global agreement that would deliver the minimum rate sought by the Biden administration.

The agreement, reached by treasury chiefs during a meeting in London on Saturday, resolves long-running tensions between the U.S. and large European economies that have at times threatened to push the international tax system into chaos and spark a trans-Atlantic trade conflict.

Under the deal, G-7 members will back a global minimum tax rate on company profits and a new way of sharing the revenues from taxing the worlds largest and most profitable companies.

The G-7, which includes Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, the U.K. and the U.S., agreed that businesses should pay a minimum tax rate of at least 15%.

G-7 finance ministers have reached an historic agreement to reform the global tax system, said Rishi Sunak, the U.K.s treasury chief.
