Tax Policy Measures in Advanced and Emerging Economies: A Novel Database

Abstract: This paper describes a new, comprehensive database of tax policy measures in 23 advanced and emerging market economies over the last four decades. We extract this information from more than 900 OECD Economic Surveys and 37,000 tax-related news from the International Bureau of Fiscal Documentation using text-mining techniques. The innovation of this dataset lies in its granularity: changes in the rates and bases of personal and corporate income taxes, value added and sale taxes, social security contributions, e… Show more

“…In this regard, expanding the dataset to include additional countries and non-consolidation years would be fruitful. Another potential direction would be to classify base measures in more detail, similar to Amaglobeli et al (2018), and indicate whether theoretically they would be expected to increase tax efficiency or not. This would make it possible to analyze the macroeconomic impact of different types of base measures, and zoom in on those more likely to be beneficial during consolidations.…”

“…In addition, we classify each measure as a tax rate or a tax base change following the classification proposed in Amaglobeli et al (2018). A tax rate measure is defined as any change to the main statutory tax rate inclusive of surtax.…”

“…In the empirical literature these announced policy changes are studied also in a narrative approach (see, e.g.,Amaglobeli et al, 2018) 7 The Kalman filter is used to evaluate the likelihood function, which combined with the prior distribution of the parameters yields the posterior distribution. Then, the Monte-Carlo-Markov-Chain Metropolis-Hastings (MCMC-MH) algorithm with two parallel chains of 500, 000 draws each is used to generate a sample from the posterior distribution in order to perform inference.8 The precise starting date of the estimation, however, changes slightly across countries due to data availability.…”
