TAIPEI (Reuters) - Taiwan hopes to reach a long-mooted tax agreement with the United States next year, Finance Minister Chuang Tsui-yun said on Wednesday, which both sides have said will foster more investment and Taipei has long pushed for.

Republican and Democratic members of the U.S. House of Representatives introduced legislation in July that would authorize President Joe Biden's administration to negotiate the tax agreement with Taiwan.
