This paper investigates the relationship between tax structures and economic growth in a panel of developed and developing countries, using the new ICTD GRD. It sought to understand the effects of tax structure on GDP growth, since many previous studies have only focused on OECD countries.
It is also motivated by the IMF Policy prescription (IMF 2011), of on-going shift from reliance on trade taxes to VAT, especially in low income countries. It further sought to understand the implications of such structural shifts with studies showing that revenue recovery following trade liberalisation has been poor in low- and middle- income countries (Baunsgaard & Keen, 2010).
Results suggest that shifts away from trade and consumption toward income taxes have had a negative impact on GDP growth rates in developing countries. This negative effect is of greater magnitude through personal income taxes (PIC). Consequently, this study provides new evidence of potentially harmful effect of trade liberalisation on the GDP growth rates. The study also gives a clear picture of low tax reliance on indirect taxes between in low-income countries.
Revenue neutral shifts away from trade taxes to consumption taxes have no negative effect on growth. However, revenue neutral shifts towards income, specifically personal income taxes are potentially harmful to GDP growth rates. Key findings hold following the exclusion of resource-rich countries and after controlling for degree of openness.

A Logit Model of Informal Traders’ Decision to Evade Tax: A Case of Zimbabweiosrjce
Taxation is the commonest and oldest source of government revenue in the world. The main reason
for taxation is to finance government expenses and redistribute of wealth. The shadow economy and tax evasion
are both widespread in Zimbabwe. When the taxation system is not effective, many economic agents will use this
opportunity to escape paying tax (which is legal) or evade tax which is illegal. When tax evasion exist, the
government fails to allocate enough income for its programs, hence fails to deliver desirable social services.
Noting the significant influence of tax evasion on the state, this paper pursues to determine factors that cause
tax evasion and their relative impact. A questionnaire approach has been employed to collect responses. Using
a logit model the results shows that income, marital status and frequency of crossing the border have positive
effect on tax evasion

US Economic Outlook - Being Decided - M Capital Group August 2021.pdfpchutichetpong
The U.S. economy is continuing its impressive recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic and not slowing down despite re-occurring bumps. The U.S. savings rate reached its highest ever recorded level at 34% in April 2020 and Americans seem ready to spend. The sectors that had been hurt the most by the pandemic specifically reduced consumer spending, like retail, leisure, hospitality, and travel, are now experiencing massive growth in revenue and job openings.
Could this growth lead to a “Roaring Twenties”? As quickly as the U.S. economy contracted, experiencing a 9.1% drop in economic output relative to the business cycle in Q2 2020, the largest in recorded history, it has rebounded beyond expectations. This surprising growth seems to be fueled by the U.S. government’s aggressive fiscal and monetary policies, and an increase in consumer spending as mobility restrictions are lifted. Unemployment rates between June 2020 and June 2021 decreased by 5.2%, while the demand for labor is increasing, coupled with increasing wages to incentivize Americans to rejoin the labor force. Schools and businesses are expected to fully reopen soon. In parallel, vaccination rates across the country and the world continue to rise, with full vaccination rates of 50% and 14.8% respectively.
However, it is not completely smooth sailing from here. According to M Capital Group, the main risks that threaten the continued growth of the U.S. economy are inflation, unsettled trade relations, and another wave of Covid-19 mutations that could shut down the world again. Have we learned from the past year of COVID-19 and adapted our economy accordingly?
“In order for the U.S. economy to continue growing, whether there is another wave or not, the U.S. needs to focus on diversifying supply chains, supporting business investment, and maintaining consumer spending,” says Grace Feeley, a research analyst at M Capital Group.
While the economic indicators are positive, the risks are coming closer to manifesting and threatening such growth. The new variants spreading throughout the world, Delta, Lambda, and Gamma, are vaccine-resistant and muddy the predictions made about the economy and health of the country. These variants bring back the feeling of uncertainty that has wreaked havoc not only on the stock market but the mindset of people around the world. MCG provides unique insight on how to mitigate these risks to possibly ensure a bright economic future.

The European Unemployment Puzzle: implications from population agingGRAPE
We study the link between the evolving age structure of the working population and unemployment. We build a large new Keynesian OLG model with a realistic age structure, labor market frictions, sticky prices, and aggregate shocks. Once calibrated to the European economy, we quantify the extent to which demographic changes over the last three decades have contributed to the decline of the unemployment rate. Our findings yield important implications for the future evolution of unemployment given the anticipated further aging of the working population in Europe. We also quantify the implications for optimal monetary policy: lowering inflation volatility becomes less costly in terms of GDP and unemployment volatility, which hints that optimal monetary policy may be more hawkish in an aging society. Finally, our results also propose a partial reversal of the European-US unemployment puzzle due to the fact that the share of young workers is expected to remain robust in the US.
