IMF Fiscal Monitor Upgrading the Tax System to Boost Productivity

(1/1)

John Short:

Chapter 2: Upgrading the Tax System to Boost Productivity of the Fiscal Monitor titled "Achieving More with Less" makes the case that upgrading a country's tax system is important to boosting productivity because it can reduce distortions that prevent resources from going to where they are most productive.
