Taxation trends in the European Union - Focus on the crisis: the main impacts on EU tax systems - Products Statistical Books
What was the impact of the economic and financial crisis on EU tax systems? This booklet, based on the 2011 report "Taxation trends in the European Union", provides an overview of the way in which the recession that started in 2008 affected the tax systems of the 27 EU Member states. It examines the impact on tax ratios and analyses the reaction of tax policy by country and by type of tax, answering questions such as: Did EU Member States cut or increase taxes in the recession? Was the impact of the recession stronger in countries with higher tax ratios? Did the tax policy choices take into account the existing level of taxation?
The booklet is written in a concise, readable format and includes a statistical annex containing the main data on taxation by country and for the EU as a whole.
