FISCAL POLICY IN THE EUROPEAN UNION BETWEEN HARMONIZATION AND COMPETITION
Journal Title: Revista Tinerilor Economisti - Year 2007, Vol 1, Issue 9
Abstract
This paper presents some aspects regarding competition and harmonization in European Union fiscal policy, especially after the last enlargement on 2007. The problem of tax harmonization is connected with tax competition in the context of increasing capital mobility between different countries. Using a panel data for EU countries, analyzed on 1995- 2004, we find significant correlations between the implicit tax rate of business income and corporation profits and the budget deficit, public debt, GDP per capita and the degree of openness of countries, the last variable is used as a proxy for capital mobility.
